<complain mode> The Sims 3 is currently in the platinum list, so I expect that it works out of the box with a stable wine version. Therefore I bought The Sims 3. Since I installed wine-1.4 on both machines with a package manager I expect that all dependencies on libraries are taken into account. So when the library libtxc_dxtn is needed by wine it should be installed automatically by the packet manager. Maybe someone should contact the people in charge for the Debian wine package to add a dependency for libtxc_dxtn. If some fonts are necessary for wine they should also be a dependency of the wine package. I am also irritated that The Sims 3 cannot be started by clicking on the icon. Additionally there are so many fixme messages. IMHO platinum should only be granted, when clicking on the icon works and when no fixme message occurs. </complain mode>
A) The AppDB ratings are set by users, not the project. There are far too many applications for those to be properly vetted. B) The Debian package is made by Debian, not Wine. File bugs against the package with Debian. C) FIXME's are not bugs in and of themselves. They're reminders that something isn't complete, even though it usually works for a lot of stuff. If they bother you, set WINEDEBUG=-all.
