[Bug 41473] New: Replace AppDB help pages with wiki pages

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41473 Bug ID: 41473 Summary: Replace AppDB help pages with wiki pages Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: dimesio(a)earthlink.net Distribution: --- The AppDB has several help pages, listed on https://appdb.winehq.org/help/. These pages are full of dead links (see bug 41375) and old information. Nobody is maintaining them. The wiki already has more up-to-date and complete instructions (e.g., https://wiki.winehq.org/AppDB_Test_Results_Guidelines) and is much easier to maintain. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 41586] New: Can' t add new developer after submitting a new application

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41586 Bug ID: 41586 Summary: Can't add new developer after submitting a new application Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: spleefer90(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- I've submitted a new application - Rogue Operatives. I've both selected a developer(by mistake) and filled out the "add new developer form". So now the app has assigned wrong developer(the correct one is SIM720 LIMITED, as per the Steam store page) and editing the Queued Application has no option to add a new developer, just choose a different existing one. Also looking at the new queued application doesn't show the submitted version, so I am unable to directly link it to a bug report. http://i.imgur.com/GfSc2ty.png To link it to a bug report I need to edit the app, check "Preview version" and click Preview, where I can then link the bug report. Very unintuitive. -- 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.

Could wine provide some recompilation-free way to enable apitrace to work — maybe an environment variable, or a registry key? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 18741] New: Wine printing output should be in .pdf rather than postscript
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Nov. 13, 2016

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18741 Summary: Wine printing output should be in .pdf rather than postscript Product: Wine Version: 1.1.22 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wineps.drv AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: scott(a)open-vote.org Blocks: 5551,6416 The new CUPS standards from http://openprinting.org/ say that .pdf is the preferred printing format over postscript: https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/printing-architecture/2008/001… -- PDF as the Standard Print Job Format ------------------------------------ To improve the reliability of the printing process, especially for complex graphics, high color depths, and for jobs where pages get separated and reordered (2 pages per sheet, booklets, selected pages, ...) we are switching from PostScript to PDF as standard print job format. The server (printing system) side is nearly completely implemented in the form of new CUPS filters and file conversion rules. On the client (application) side it is needed that the applications generate the print jobs in PDF and not in Postscript. This would mean a change of the print job generation part of OpenOffice.org. As OpenOffice.org has an excellent "Export to PDF" function, there will not be needed much new code. One can use this functionality to generate print jobs, using PDF settings optimized for printing. This is not absolutely urgent, as CUPS can convert PostScript to PDF with a pstopdf filter, but applications which directly produce PDF have a better control over the graphical quality of the print job, and they even solve page management (2 on a sheet, booklets, selected pages, ...) problems on old PostScript-based servers, as a CUPS filter will generate PostScript from the incoming PDF then (pdftops) and this PostScript is much cleaner as the one coming from most applications. So I am asking you whether you can change OpenOffice.org to make the "Print" command emitting PDF instead of PostScript. To not break lagacy, non-PDF-capable environments, make this a configurable option. I am very grateful for any support from the OpenOffice.org side in terms of these OpenPrinting projects. They will improve the printing workflow a lot and will make many bugs and user complaints go away. -- We should do a similar thing in Wine -- 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.

[Bug 30740] New: winedump should extend ordinal imports/exports with known names from our spec files

[Bug 17329] New: Wine needs more userfriendly message when certain dlls are not registered/missing
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Nov. 11, 2016

Nov. 11, 2016

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17329 Summary: Wine needs more userfriendly message when certain dlls are not registered/missing Product: Wine Version: 1.1.12 Platform: PC URL: http://www.whizlabs.com/download.php?prod=SCJP6.0.exe OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: ole32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: xerox_xerox2000(a)yahoo.co.uk Created an attachment (id=19352) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=19352) an idea of how to generate more userfriendly message This bug's intention is to enhance user friendlyness, and hopefully less invalid bug reports, and more first time success experience for users. Take for example app from http://www.whizlabs.com/download.php?prod=SCJP6.0.exe (from some bug in bugzilla). The application fails with a run-time error, and some , for newbies, cryptic ole errors. I think it would enhance wine's userfriendlyness a big deal, if we would just put up a nice messagebox, with a message what the error means, and what should be done. I'll attach a (crappy) patch , just to give an idea how easy it would be to give users more clues how to get around the "bug". Just apply patch , and run the app above, and user will know he has to install wsh56. -- 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.
