Hi Wolfgang,


IMHO not really. Lutris manages wine versions itself, the only real reason would be dependencies (although Lutris can use system wine if wished). But its perfectly fine to use Lutris without wine32 if no win32 applications are used.


In any case, for Lutris the policy is to deviate from upstream as little as possible, including the debian files and thus the recommends. Please contact upstream if this message bothers you to find a solution.


Best regards

Stephan
