please return the previous wine version with changed name

[AbNoRMiS]

previous wine version 1.3.x uses much less resources
moreover it can use oss as opposed to version 1.4
if possible bring back this version with changed name
like wine-1.3.tcz

p.s.
only please do not do so that when it starts
then running winecfg

[curaga]

Wine 1.4 claims to still support OSS. Is this disabled in the wine extension, or buggy for you? In the latter case, please file a bug at winehq.org.

I doubt that. 1.3.x directly culminated into 1.4 as it was its dev version and telling from the changelog it looks at least that they dropped some useless stuff like openal, esd, jack and so on. Do you have any real proof for "much less resources" or is it just flaming?

moreover it can use oss as opposed to version 1.4

wine 1.4 can use OSSv4 but since we don't have this in the repo (AFAIR), of course no support in Tiny Core. I'm not sure there are any reasons why we shouldn't provide OSSv4, maybe someone just would have to take care about it and then wine can be rebuild with OSS support.

if possible bring back this version with changed name
like wine-1.3.tcz

As I said... it was only a development version. Where should we put the marker for what "basic" change in the development process someone likes and the other one doesn't? We should go for stable releases, so either 1.2 or 1.4, or both.

only please do not do so that when it starts
then running winecfg

what do you mean exactly? I didn't do anything special to winecfg except for the wbar icon. There is no automatic start triggered by the extension.

thanks i recheck
but interestingly someone else checked wine-1.4 with oss?
but compare the total size and count of dependencies wine-1.3 and wine-1.4
you believe that wine-1.3 should not be left in the repo?

[curaga]

@gutmensch
Hm? Our OSS is v4, 4.2 build 2006 to be exact.

@AbNoRMiS

you believe that wine-1.3 should not be left in the repo?

I agree with going with the stable wine version over a dev version.

(I do run private Wine builds myself, because I too find the number of deps in the repo wine huge. But it's the usual tradeoff, as my build would likely miss stuff other people use.)

dear gutmensch
this is will be excellent decision
are you preserve the wine-1.2 on your attic?
 

[gutmensch]

@curaga:
wine itself reported it doesn't find oss4 headers in the build log, do I need the kernel headers for this?


[edit]
Ah yeah ok, sorry my bad. Not used to capital letter extensions, haha. Going to rebuild wine 1.4 as a "forg-edit" WITH OSS
[/edit]

[gutmensch]

I'm going to have a look, it might be a bit dusty though we can revive version 1.2 with less deps like we had before, it's no problem I think. build scripts are there.

[curaga]

Usually OSS apps are cool with the standard headers, this is the first I've heard one wants the v4 header specifically. Good to hear you have it working anyway.

[AbNoRMiS]

сan i get wine-1.2 from here
http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/
and will it work?

[vinnie]

If I were to serve i have the previous version of wine backupped, however, I saw that gutmensch again updated wine adding support for oss

[AbNoRMiS]

thanks vinnie
i already took wine-1.2 from 3.x repo and it works
most likely gutmensch added support oss4
because wine-1.4 does not work with OSS.tcz for me

[gutmensch]

wine-1.2 posted for TC4, OSS still not working with wine.tcz?

[AbNoRMiS]

when i installed wine-1.2 from repo 4.x
i got an error libgsm no compiled in
and again there were no sound
ago i get back wine 1.2 from repo 3.x
renamed it to wine-1.2.tcz and fixed deps
and now everything is working fine

[gutmensch]

I see, gonna repost with bloody libgsm included
