If the problem exists in Wine's code, it needs to be corrected. However, don't be suprized if the bug is closed as invalid.

Alexandre would be very happy. The main problem with Wine on Mac and reporting bugs is there is way too much fragmentation. There are three versions of Darwine, and each makes its own changes to wine (afaict). Rather than doing this, if you want Wine on Mac to be considered a 'real' install of Wine, it needs to be done as any other Unix is. I don't know much about Mac's, but in my limited testing of it, it built somewhat okay if you installed the dependencies needed to /usr/local/bin and adjusted $PATH accordingly. If that can be done on someone's box and built into a .pkg installer, Wine on Mac would be much better off. Of course, regular test results (against git), from someone on OS X to http://test.winehq.org/data would help a lot as well (I can help anyone interested in that..you just need an OS X build environment and a few spare CPU cycles daily. The rest is scripted). > There are issues with the release version of 1.1.23 as well. Looks like video is running very slow. File a separate bug. -- -Austin
