wine (4.0~rc2-1) unstable; urgency=medium The package wine-binfmt (not part of a standard Wine installation) will now automatically register Wine as interpreter for Windows executables. This causes Wine to be invoked automatically whenever a matching file is executed. (Previously wine-binfmt only installed support for this, but you still needed to activate it manually.) Warning: This increases the risk of inadvertently launching Windows malware, so please make sure that you understand the security risks before installing this package. For more information please refer to Wine's README.debian. -- Jens Reyer Sun, 28 Jan 2018 18:51:42 +0100 wine-development (1.9.16-1) unstable; urgency=medium Debian has two sets of Wine packages: wine and wine-development. They now use the Debian alternatives system to provide /usr/bin/wine and other commands. If both are installed this system defaults to use the commands provided by wine (no change in behavior because wine already provided these unsuffixed commandnames previously). But if configured, or if only wine-development is installed, you may now use wine-development's commands without the "-development" suffix. For more information on this please have a look at README.debian. -- Jens Reyer Sun, 24 Jul 2016 23:43:42 +0200 wine-development (1.9.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium Wine now uses a shared 64-bit wineprefix per default if wine32 and wine64 (or wine32-development and wine64-development) are installed. For more information on this please have a look at README.debian. * The package wine (or wine-development) needs to be installed in any case now. * Existing 32-bit wineprefixes don't get changed and continue to work. * Existing 64-bit wineprefixes in $HOME/.wine64 aren't found automatically anymore if you are running Wine from a terminal, while Desktop launchers continue to work. You may rename the prefix to $HOME/.wine and adjust any launcher, or run: $ export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine64" * The wineserver is now in PATH, its old filepath doesn't exist anymore. Any existing WINESERVER configuration must be dropped or adjusted. -- Jens Reyer Sun, 10 Jan 2016 00:51:06 +0100
