Getting current Wine in Ubuntu 10.04?

Post by David Gerard »

I'm on Ubuntu Lucid with the Wine PPA in my repos, and wine --version
still gives "wine-1.2", not 1.3.0 and on. What's the magic incantation
to get the dev releases?

same here. I added the repo as instructed. I even tried the alternative manual adding of the repository.

It seemed to work.... the repo is listed. However wine1.2 is all I see as well.

I compile from source myself so no idea. Might want to try downloading the
deb for ubuntu at the winehq.org page? (at least I think there is one
there).

No. Ubuntu moved its Wine packages to ppa some time ago.

Ahh my bad. I read it is now in the ppa, just have to be patient i guess
if you don't want to take the 15 minutes to compile it yourself.

The maintainer made a new package for the 1.3.x series yesterday: wine1.3

So basically, you've to uninstall wine-1.2 and wine1.2-gecko and
install wine1.3 (and wine1.3-gecko when/if it's available).

In short, give the maintainer some time... he may have some free
time/holiday too!
