Bug #: 32142
           Summary: Ability to run Nuance Dragon Naturally Speaking 11.5
                    broke with wine 1.5.13
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.13
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Wine 1.5.16 output when launching Dragon (until ctrl-C after 10 minutes or so
of CPU at 600%)
Steps to reproduce:
1) Install 32-bit Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11.5 onto Wine on 32-bit Ubuntu
11.10.
2) Move the WINEPREFIX directory to 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04.
3) Install wine1.5 1.5.12-ubuntu0 from the
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ppa PPA (on Ubuntu 12.04).
4) Launch Dragon with WINEARCH=win32.
5) Use it.
6) Update wine1.5 to 1.5.13-ubuntu0 from the PPA.
7) Launch Dragon with WINEARCH=win32.
8) Downgrade to wine1.5 1.5.12-ubuntu0.
9) Launch Dragon with WINEARCH=win32.
10) Update wine1.5 to 1.5.16-ubuntu0 from the PPA.
11) Launch Dragon with WINEARCH=win32.
12) Downgrade to wine1.5 1.5.12-ubuntu0.
13) Launch Dragon with WINEARCH=win32.
Actual results:
Dragon works on wine1.5 1.5.12-ubuntu0. On wine1.5 1.5.12-ubuntu0 Dragon fails.
It starts running and terminates during launch. On wine1.5 1.5.16-ubuntu0,
Dragon shows its taskbar icon with the tooltip "initializing…" and goes to a
seemingly infinite loop on six of the eight CPU hardware threads. Launching
Dragon again on wine1.5 1.5.16-ubuntu0 and then right clicking the taskbar icon
caused Dragon to crash with glibc complaining about a double free. Downgrading
to wine1.5 1.5.12-ubuntu0 makes Dragon work again.
Expected results:
Expected Dragon to continue to work on versions of Wine newer than wine1.5
1.5.12-ubuntu0.
Additional info:
The weird steps 1 and 2 were there, because the Dragon installation wouldn’t
succeed on Ubuntu 12.04 initially due to
https://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/linux/faq/ubuntu1204 . Also, I
couldn’t figure out how to satisfy the .Net dependencies in the case of 64-bit
Dragon.
In case filing bugs seen with distro binaries are frowned upon, I already filed
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/1075475 and was told by the
maintainer to refile here.
