So tell me what distro s is the devs using which is the original question. I am an admin, developer and I do not use Linux. Developers use whatever they have at hand. Some use Ubuntu, some SuSE, some MacOSX, and some use Solaris. Thus a developer could be using Linux or UNIX to develop on. The point is that you should use a Linux distribution that YOU are comfortable with that supports Wine. Ubuntu and Debian both have Wine packagers (they are not a part of the project) that build and package Wine for those particular distributions. I forgot, some use the RedHat variants like CentOS or Fedora. The latest versions of most Linux Distributions should have package files available from the distribution's package system (Ubuntu has a ppa for Wine Stable and Wine Development) or has a third-party built package available from the Download link on the WineHQ page. The Wine project does not and cannot build/maintain these packages. Again, get a distribution,become familiar with it and use Wine with it. James
