--- Comment #10 from Jim JSladek@juno.com --- The tests that I have run thus far:
On my main system, I have wine401 installed - when wine was upgraded to wine6 recently, I saw the failure. I immediatly returned that system via image restoration to the system using wine401. And I am no doing any further testing on thta system.
On a test system with the same OS, that was upgraded to wine6, FPW, of course, didn't work and I have been working with the PCLOS software people to try and determine the problem. That is where I received the list of versions they held that did or did not work; ie. anything they held above wine404 failed.
I received a copy of wine404 to try and I removed wine6 using synaptic and installed the received wine404 via command line. It worked as expected. I have no way of going back to wine 401 at this point other than restoring this test version.
I made a comment this morning on my other bug report (47933) with reference to wine no longer supporting 16-bit after wine404, to which a return comment denied the discontinuing of 16-bit support and that it may have been accidentally broken at some point.
According to the comments I received from PCLOS, wine412 failed. So the 16-bit failure in wine occurred somewhere between 404 and 412 .........
