--- Comment #15 from Ricard Wanderlöf ricard2015@butoba.net --- Thanks for the analysis. Indeed, when checking config.log there were numerous WARNINGs, including some about missing audio libraries which I hadn't paid attention to. I've fixed most of them, the only three remaining are now
configure:19391: WARNING: prelink not found, base address of core dlls won't be set correctly. configure:19391: WARNING: libxslt 32-bit development files not found, xslt won't be supported. configure:19391: WARNING: libgnutls 32-bit development files not found, no schannel support.
but I'll check elsewhere to see how to handle that.
As you noted, Spectre now starts, but crashes in various places afterwards. I'll file a separate bug report for that.
Incidentally, the problem with Specre failing at startup also seems to be present in the latest stable version 1.6.2, as shipped with Debian Jessie. It seems to be a bit of a regression, as I distinctly remember using the application under the Wine version that came with Debian Wheezy (Wine 1.4.1).
One question still though, even without the proper audio libraries, is it reasonable that Wine crashes under these circumstances? Or does the problem seem to be that the application crashes when Wine tells it that there is no audio available?
