Gog galaxy & wine 7.5

Post by krumpf »

After updating from wine 7.4 to 7.5, GoG galaxy client had great difficulties to start, extremely slow & unresponsive. I figured it was hogging CPU at 100%.
Switched back to wine 7.4, and GoG client just works fine. Could there be a regression in 7.5 ?

I noticed different regressions (i.e. problems with different programs) with 7.3, 7.4 and 7.5, the most regressions for the programs I use occurred with v7.4. Probably no problem I noticed occurred with more than 1 version, though, i.e. each of those 3 versions had it's own problems.
I'm staying with v7.2 for now.

(Problems include programs not working properly anymore, crashing at start or not starting at all - the difference being that with the latter there is no feedback in the form of a crash notice by the program or wine at all.)

¿Can you do a regression testing and file a bug?
That would help fixing this regression on the next release, the sooner we identify the bad commit the better

It seems that the regressions I noticed with wine > v7.2 were fixed in v7.6. At least the ones I remember don't occur with v7.6.
