--- Comment #11 from Joshua Welch oneadvent@gmail.com 2012-03-26 21:48:02 CDT --- OK, trying to follow your directions I used http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=39500 and http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=39494
to patch the latest version (1.5) from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-1.5.0.tar.bz2
No hiccups other than I'm on a 64b computer and it complained about 32b and had to install some extra stuffs for that. (followed the guide here: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit#head-245e8f90708da8070a4f3cbe336254c712af...)
Patches appeared to have applied correctly.
The installer now loads up and as stated it simply says it will not install until it is released. I hope this helps those that come after me.
