Bug ID: 51920 Summary: Official package for Arch Linux Product: Packaging Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: wine-packages Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: joseskvolpe@gmail.com CC: dimesio@earthlink.net Distribution: ArchLinux
Wine has packages on the Arch Linux multilib and community repository, they're currently maintained by Felix Yan (Wine) and Daniel Bermond (Wine-gecko & Wine-mono) Problem is... Sometimes there's a huge delay on these packages when they get an update. This is not a issue only with Wine, it occurs with many other packages that are maintained in these repositories. Wine has just released version 6.20, but these repositories are still in 6.16... If we had a official WineHQ repository for Arch Linux distributions like we got in Ubuntu and Debian, we could get updates for Wine much quicker. Additionally, having git versions on the official repository would also be neat to get nightly builds of Wine. ^w^

--- Comment #1 from Jactry Zeng jactry92@gmail.com --- Currently, the Wine in Arch's multilib repository is 6.19: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/commits/packages/wine/trunk I can see Felix is maintaining it very actively, though there is one version delay, I think it might be worth understanding why the delay happened before any decision is made.

--- Comment #2 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- The short answer, for me, is no. I already have my hands full with Debian, Fedora, and Ubuntu and don't have time to deal with another distro, particularly one with a packaging system I know nothing about.
I also don't see a need, as the distro packages are actively maintained and AFAIK are vanilla Wine.

I am on Linux Mint, but anyway I see an error that ubuntu ppa doesn't have a release file.

That has absolutely nothing to do with the topic of this bug. If you are having problems installing our Ubuntu packages, ask for help on the forum.

--- Comment #5 from Josesk Volpe joseskvolpe@gmail.com --- Yeah.. I find it weird to see it's on version 6.19 on website but still 6.16 on my package manager, but then i remembered multilib has mirrors other distributions, like Manjaro, use...
Manjaro's multilib mirror is still in version 6.16 https://mirrors.sonic.net/manjaro/stable/multilib/x86_64/

--- Comment #6 from Gijs Vermeulen gijsvrm@gmail.com --- I'll go ahead and mark this one WONTFIX. wine-6.21 was released by Felix only 3 days after the release, which is more that reasonable to call the package 'actively maintained'.
