Package maintainer should probably at minimum rename the file, if not find a way to encourage users to make this security-lowering decision on their own rather than making it the default. (Maybe a warning message from wine when vm.mmap_min_addr is not zero?)
Wine doesn't work if it not zero.

Wine itself still works, but any program using DOS calls will fail and you'll get that scary warning. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
