I was afraid you'd ask that... OK, off I went and started bisecting between 0.9.58 and 0.9.60. Unfortunately, on my second bisect (4eaa424c795c9c5ed4a772898297e692a5a2b2b0), WINE refused to start with the error
wine client error:36: version mismatch 339/338. Your wine binary was not upgraded correctly, or you have an older one somewhere in your PATH. Or maybe the wrong wineserver is still running?
Version 0.9.58, which I also still have installed, behaves the same. Apparently something became incompatible (never seen this error before, and I do rather frequent version-hopping with WINE). I'd like to help, but keeping different installations of my environment (plus probably the actual game) is getting a bit much. Any suggestions how I can run older WINE versions after running 0.9.60?
Running many self-compiled versions of wine doesn't usually create any problems. I've lots of them, for example, in separate directories. Just make sure you run one version at a time. Errors like this normally appear if a wine process (started with another wine version) was still running (maybe a program minimized to systray or something like that). Make sure you close all programs and no wine processes remain in 'ps' output.
