What bugs are they talking about with wine? I only saw one marked as grave: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=133540&repeatmerged=yes but this one looks worth responding to, too: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=98661&repeatmerged=yes It might be good for wine developers who like debian to have a look at the debian bug tracking system. The main problem appears to be being addressed, but a little overkill never hurt. - Dan
