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.
