1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10
2) apt-cache policy wine1.3 wine1.3: Installed: 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1 Candidate: 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1 Version table: *** 1.3.10-0ubuntu1~maverickppa1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
3) What is expected to happen is when one downloads Microsoft Office Word Viewer 2003 from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=3657ce88-7cfa-45...
installs it in WINE, then opens MS .docx file downloaded from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a471da91-dcbb-4e9a-...
it opens.
4) What happens instead is when one tries to open the file, MSOWV notes "This file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Word. Do you want to download a compatibility pack so that you can work with this file?" clicked Ok, then window pops up "Program Error The program WORDVIEW.EXE has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." clicked ok, got log file (please see attached wine1.3.10: wine wordview.exe.txt).
