Hi Jack, The bug isn't in the Wine package's (at least, not any more), the show stopper for getting Wine working with Catalyst is being caused by a fight between ocl-icd-libopencl1 packages and the fglrx-core and/or fglrx-updates-core Catalyst packages in the repo's as well as on AMD's website at present time (from here on in I'll just refer to fglrx-core - it applies tot he fglrx-updaes-core packages as well). The basic problem is that the AMD fglrx-core won't install ocl-icd- libopencl1 because both packages provide the virtual package libopencl1 (NOTE: the package ocl-icd-libopencl doesn't provide a libOpenCL.so file as I originally feared however) - do to this, ocl-icd-libopencl1 won't install with out removing the fglrx-core because it too provides a virtual libopencl1 package. So the package manager ends up thinking that if you Want Wine, to resolve the conflicts it has to remove the fglrx-core packags. Now, I could put the fixed packages into a PPA, except that would leave some OpenCL bugs in place (I'm not a package maintainer, and aside from modifying the control file in the fglrx-core packages (that's to per terje's earlier post), I'm not really sure how to also bundle in he OpenCL fixes into the package. I suppose I could make a corrections package from scratch for the OpenCL corrections, but again, I'm not sure how to do that as I've never done that before. Besides (food for thought), I have one other problem putting out corrected package in a PPAs. Does ocl-icd-libopencl actually provide libopencl1 support directly like the AMD fglrx-core packages do, or is ocl-icd-libopencl providing enhancements to libopenCL1? Which package should be creating the libopenCL1 virtual package? Thats the question, and the main reason why I don't want to make a PPA. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1376587 Title: wine and fglrx packages are mutually exclusive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.6/+bug/1376587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
