Public bug reported: Binary package hint: wine
I posted this in the questions-department, and was asked to report a bug, so I'm moving my request here. After experiencing a sound issue with a game running Wine from the Ubuntu Wine PPA, I tried compiling the latest Wine from the Ubuntu Wine PPA with the WinePulse patches (http://art.ified.ca/?page_id=40) and this completely solved my issues. I've read more than a couple of threads on the forums with people experiencing similar issues (stuttering/choppy sound), and others requesting a PPA with Wine that includes the WinePulse patches, since many users aren't ready to compile Wine themselves. Because of this I'd like to know if it would be possible for the Ubuntu Wine PPA to include wine-packages that have the WinePulse patches applied. I have made such a package (wine1.3) and put it up in my PPA, if anyone's interested in testing (based on 1.3.11-0ubuntu1~lucidppa1 from the Ubuntu Wine PPA): https://launchpad.net/~runeks/+archive/winepulse/ Bear in my mind this is my first time adding a package to a PPA, so I'm not completely sure I've done it the right way. I've just bumped the version number up to 1.3.99 to make sure my package isn't updated with a never version from ubuntu-wine, when I probably should have created a new package called wine1.3-winepulse which replaces wine1.3 when it is installed. But it seems to work, and serves the purpose as a - right now at least - recent version of wine with WinePulse in a PPA. I'm trying to upload a new package to my PPA that uses the "-winepulse" naming scheme right now, so maybe it'll be ready in a couple of hours. What is the attitude towards this in the Ubuntu Wine camp? Would it be possible to include, for example, packages called wine1.3-winepulse and wine1.2-winepulse which have the WinePulse patches that install instead of wine1.3 and wine1.2 repectively? ** Affects: wine (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: ppa wine winepulse -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707389 Title: Please include a Wine version with the WinePulse patches in Ubuntu Wine PPA -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
