Guys, who knows, why need to compile Wine for applying patches. Can without this step?
Why not to specify(by some command) a path to patch file when launching program or game?
I mean, that use patch only in time launching.

Yep. Although binary patches exist and technically possible, they are rarely used for open source projects for practical reasons. Instead, we make patches for the source code, which then needs to be recompiled after you apply the patch.dimesio wrote:You can only patch source code, not a binary.
