[Bug 54310] New: Test on an older distribution
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54310 Bug ID: 54310 Summary: Test on an older distribution Product: Wine-Testbot Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: novae.harpist06(a)icloud.com Distribution: --- There were several recent bugs that affect / affected older distros: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54060 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54166 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54210 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51268 I think it'd make sense to have an older distro as test VM to avoid these. The current oldest vendor-supported distro is RHEL7 (and rebuilds). I think it'd make sense to use that / a rebuild. I tested on an Oracle Linux 7.9 install, and used the following commands to get a compilation going: yum install -y -q https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm printf '[epel-archive]\nname=EPEL Archive\nbaseurl=https://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/epel/7.2019-05-29/$basearch/\nenabled=1\ngpgcheck=0\n'
/etc/yum.repos.d/epel-archive.repo yum install -y -q gcc-c++ make glibc-devel.i686 mingw32-gcc mingw64-gcc yum-builddep wine
the archive repo is necessary as mingw was removed from EPEL around that time. -- 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.

This can also be tested on a modern distro when you install the old toolchain. I already did that on my system and submitted a few patches, but like usually, they're being ignored. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54310 --- Comment #2 from novae.harpist06(a)icloud.com --- Well, here it's 2 binutils, 1 cups, 1 linux-headers, so there is *some* variety. But of course, just catching half these bugs would be a step forward too. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
