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

Bug#992198: lutris: should recommend (or depend) on wine32

Package: lutris
Version: 0.5.8.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

lutris keeps putting 
| it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it.
| as root, please execute "apt-get install wine32"
into the window it was started from.

Would it make sense to recommend wine32?
