[Bug 27611] New: Kindle4PC 1.0.1 Beta works with 1.3.15 but does not work with 1.3.23

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27611

Summary: Kindle4PC 1.0.1 Beta works with 1.3.15 but does not
                    work with 1.3.23
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.23
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

I can launch and run Kindle 4 PC 1.0.1 Beta 1 (25709) with both versions of
WINE 1.3 without error.

I have marked the bug as major, because the application that used to work has
become inoperable in a fundamental way.

With the latest just-upgraded 1.3.23 I can not open any books, and thus the
application is in practice completely non-usable. I can only see the books I
have purchased, and the list of purchased books updates, but opening a book
will fail, no matter if the book has been downloaded earlier or is a new
purchase.

I have downloaded 1.3.23 from LaunchPad WINE PPA. Thus I can choose between
that package and the default WINE 1.3 that comes from the Ubuntu repository.

The exact versions are:
1.3.15-0ubuntu5
1.3.23-0ubuntu1~ppa1~natty1

I am on Ubuntu Natty 64 bits, up to date.

I have started using the LaunchPad WINE PPA much earlier than now, so some
other version of WINE 1.3 downloaded from the PPA, newer than 1.3.15, has also
worked properly. This issue is recent.

Happy to try different versions of WINE so detect at which point exactly this
error pops up, provided some instructions. In aptitude I only have these two
versions to pick between, so currently not sure at all where and how to get
e.g. WINE 1.3.22 for Ubuntu Natty amd64.

See http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting for instructions on running a
regression test. The process is much easier than you might think. You'll want
to apt-get build-dep wine1.3 wine1.3-dev, check out the source, then
./configure && make as described. No need to make install - you can run wine
from the compilation directory. If you're having issues doing this it's likely
there'll be someone in #winehq on Freenode who can help out.

Can't confirm. I was able to download KindleForPC (1.1.0.30136), created and
amazon account from this app. Chose some paid book and select send a free
sample.

After that, it showed up in application KindleForPC and i was able to read this
sample.

Wine: 1.3.23, 1.3.23-160-g38c13e5.

Kindle for PC does not work with WINE 1.3.28 either. I'm running Ubuntu Natty
and latest Kindle for PC downloaded and re installed on 14 Sept 11. Confirm
worked with three week old version of Wine. The wine update which stopped came
through Ubuntu update manager -sorry I've lost the version number of this.

Hope this helps - I'm a newbie and am not really sure how to use this site.

Works fine here as well, using wine-1.3.30-205-g472a8f7 / Kindle 1.8.0 (36124).

I'm marking this WORKSFORME, since it works for Wylda and I, and there's no
regression test. If someone still has a problem in current wine, ideally with
an up to date Kindle client, please file a new bug (and run the regression
test, if it really is a regression).

For fresh installs, look out for bug 28773.
