Package: wine

Hello,
the fourth line of /usr/bin/wine is
ARCH="`dpkg --print-architecture`"
The problem is that dpkg is installed mode 750, as stated in
/var/lib/dpkg/statoverride:
#0 #0 0750 /usr/bin/dpkg
this results in normal users having troubles running wine on amd64,
How would you define "normal users"? Up until now, *nobody* else has
ever had such a statoverride, and it seems like a ridiculous one. Where
does it come from? It's certainly not a "normal" configuration.
And even in this configuration, why does it cause trouble? Even if ARCH
is unset, Wine should still start normally.
and
getting error message on other architectures. Shouldn't other mechanisms
be used to get the real arch ?
It's the most robust approach so far. What else would you suggest?
IMO, you should fix your system by removing this bogus statoverride and
take steps to ensure it doesn't come back, but if you don't want to, I'm
probably willing to accept a patch to work around broken permissions as
necessary.
