How a patch is included in a wine version

xekhz · Post by **xekhz** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:14 am

Hello ppl
In my wine usage experience, I got a patch from Lei Zhang, and i worked 100% in my app.
When will this patch be included in a wine version ? patch refers to http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15543

another question,
Sometimes powerbuilder application search for system32/drivers/etc/{hosts,services} files

Can this be created when we execute winecfg ?

Patches are sent to [email protected]. Alexandre (the
maintainer), picks the patches he thinks are well implemented and
clean, tests them to make sure they don't break the conformance tests,
and apply them to Wine daily.

If the patch is not acceptable, it isn't applied. Lei needs to revise
the patch, possibly adding a conformance test, or reworking the patch.

That's bug 12076 (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12076).
Shouldn't be to difficult to implement, if you know C.
