wine crash report

I realize this is an old game and bug and there are probably other alternatives
to play, but Civ 2 Gold crashes on start.

wine: Unhandled exception 0x80000003 in thread 27 at address 0x7bc6b4a0 (thread
0027), starting debugger...

Also fails using WineBottler. However, it works perfectly in CrossOver.

Using Wine 1.7.9 (Fink on OS X 10.9.2) as Win95.

At a guess, this is the glu32 issue (bug 34398).  First thing to try is the X11
driver.

Thanks for the reply

Please excuse me if this is supposed to be simple. I visited
http://wiki.winehq.org/Patching for instructions on applying the patch you
linked.

*copied the text of the deXify_glu32.patch that you linked. 
*made a file called patch.diff in my /sw/lib/wine/ folder. (Fink install)
*ran /sw/lib/wine/ patch -p1 < patch.diff

output in both cases is: patch: **** strip count l is not a number

*also tried with /sw/lib/wine/ patch -p1 < patch.patch

What am I missing?

I'm not sure that the patch on that bug will apply cleanly to current Wine. 
But that's not what you should be trying, yet.

First, you should try switching to use the X11 driver rather than the Mac
driver.  To do that, run regedit in Wine.  Navigate to the key path
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers.  That last key may not exist by
default, so you'll have to select the Wine key and do Edit > New > Key to
create it.  Then, select the Drivers key and do Edit > New > String Value.  Set
the value's name to "Graphics" and then set its data to "x11,mac".  (Don't
enter the quote marks in either case.)

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for over a
year. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.51 or newer) wine?

No answer from the reporter since 9 years. No download to test.
Can an administrator close this bug as ABANDONED?

I missed Ken's reply years ago and now I don't have the setup to test. I'll
have to try again with a new approach!

Agree, close this issue.
