WineHQ repository for bionic

Post by citrusalex »

Hi, I am currently experiencing some issues running application through wine built for artful (Ubuntu). The issue is not reproducible in wine that I myself installed a virtual machine under 18.04. Compiling wine for me for each release is really inconvenient, plus I am sure there are a lot of users out there that wouldn't really bother with it too, so that brings up a question - when will wine repo add bionic beaver support? The system has been released over a month ago and yet there is still none.

The only person who can answer that is the package maintainer who controls the build system, Michael Müller, [email protected].

The "bus factor" does seem to be rather at play here then...

Just received an email from one of the maintainers:
Hi,

Yes there is plans to support it. I trying to get support on the build box for it. It's a slow process.
