1.0.1 download - aa strange problem

Post by Silgrin4D »

Having trouble with 1.2, tried to return to 1.0.1 (last stable acc. to the Wine page!) However, there`s... no link to it anywhere! Even in .deb repository there are any versions you could fancy- later and veen earlier - minus the stable. A rather strange idea...
Where can I find 1.0.1 packages?!

I use Ubuntu 10, hoped for packages - never installed from source and don`t want to risk problems with so crucial app. The package links from the front page point to beta versions.

Hi.

First of all, wine is in continuous development, and I won't say 1.0.1
is/was stable: it was just supposed to run well a number of specific
applications. I doubt it's better than 1.2rc, but YMMV.

If you had an application working well on 1.0.1 and stopped working in
1.2rc, you may as well file a regression bug (just make sure
beforehand that you've read the AppDB entry, checked if no similar bug
has been filed, ...). Trying with a new wineprefix might also help (backup
your .wine if necessary).

That said, if you really want to remove the 1.2 package, you should:
1. Uninstall wine1.2 package
2. Remove wine PPA as package repository & update your local packages
list (with "Reload" or similar).
3. Install wine package

Using the same wineprefix for 1.0 and 1.2 apps is not recommended, though...

OK, but the whole mess is about 1.0.1 NOT being available! The system software center points to 1.2 or sth similar, and I have no idea how to get the packages for 1.0.1 (unlike with src, which is at a click).

There should be packages in the normal Ubuntu repository... (You might
need to disable the PPA...)

(Wine doesn't release packages, each distribution typically have its
own packages doing it their own way..)

Open Synaptic > Settings > Repositories. Verify if "multiverse" is
checked in "Ubuntu Software" tab.
(BTW there is a wine1.0 package in Lucid).
