Hi, Thanks for your answer. I'll take a look after my new year vacation.
Just a question about a package which block the new version of Wine integration. vkd3d 1.2-6 in Experimental is not usable in Sid because it needs mesa-vulkan-driver << 21. Michael did that because vkd3d tests fails during building. I don't know why because it fails with mesa 20 too. I opened a bug report upstream and wine/vkd3d developer told me that there is this issue because of nobody has the same GPU (someone can have the error and someone else not) The question is : It is possible to don't make the test to package the app ? --> it's possible to pass "--disable-tests" as argument for configure.
