Wine currently released as "developers only". Do not be surprised that some of these messages may only meaningful to the persons that wrote this code.

This may be totally insignificant (the program does not depend on the missing features) or severe (the missing feature is crucial). It is best to report these. Sometimes they repeat hundreds of times, it is enough to mention repeat many times. > > err:ole:RPCRT4_OpenConnection protseq mswmsg not supported err's are more severe and a more likely to indicate a failure.

With a bit of luck it tells exactly how the program crashes, most crucial information.
