** Description changed:

+ :ubuntu-wine/ppa && sudo apt-get -y update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade &&
+ sudo apt-get -y install wine1.2
+ 
  Binary package hint: wine1.2
  
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:  Ubuntu 10.10
  Release:      10.10
  
  2) apt-cache policy wine1.3
  wine1.3:
-   Installed: 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1
-   Candidate: 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1

  3) What is expected to happen is when one downloads Microsoft Office
  Word Viewer 2003 from:
  
  http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=3657ce88
  -7cfa-457a-9aec-f4f827f20cac&displaylang=en
  
  installs it in WINE, then opens MS .docx file downloaded from:
  
  http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a471da91-dcbb-
  4e9a-8b6c-778a79038758&displaylang=en
  
  it opens.
  
  4) What happens instead is when one tries to open the file, MSOWV notes
  "This file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Word. Do you want
  to download a compatibility pack so that you can work with this file?"
  clicked Ok, then window pops up "Program Error The program WORDVIEW.EXE
  has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for
  the inconvenience." clicked ok, got log file (please see attached
  wine1.3.10: wine wordview.exe.txt).
