I am just reinstalling wine and installed wine-git because I know I am
going to have to do a regression or two. I haven't bothered to install
wine by it self. When I tried to install and run a version of Websters
dictionary the program installed without error but refused to run
producing a fatal error window. I had this program running under wine
1.5.5 some time ago and it ran fine. Is the failure due to a change in
the newer version or is it due to the fact that I am trying to run the
program from wine-git with no straight wine copy installed. Do I need to
install a straight copy of wine as well as wine-git.
All help will be sincerely appreciated.

Using wine from git is enough. You could run it directly from the build
directory. There is no need to install it. Make sure you have all
dependencies available. Well if wine 1.5.5 worked in the past, version
1.5.5 should also work from your own git build. If it doesn't work,
check if your distribution has some patches applied. After that, you
could run the regression test.
