PlayOnLinux Packages - File Mismatch

When you install PlayOnLinux the first time and start running a manual installation some of the Packages will error "File Mismatch"

This is due to the PlayOnLinux scripts being out-of-date with the Winetricks repositories

What happens is when you install a package, its actually using Winetricks to download and install them in your .PlayOnLinux/resources directory.
Then next time you install the package its already cached on your computer. No need to download again.

Winetricks has been updating some packages but PlayOnLinux is not updating the scripts

Here are all the scripts for PlayOnLinux 4 Packages;

If you are script savy or know a bit about programming, maybe you can take a look at some of these and help us to get them updated so our Guides are still functional to new Linux Gamers.

Thank you

It appears that when we update the script and contribute to PlayOnLinux, it has to be approved, but I see several people have contributed and the PlayOnLinux team isn't approving them.
So now we have to wait because until these updates are approved I don't think they will be rolled out in PlayOnLinux updates.

This might be a lose lose scenario
