Summary: wine dumps core on vanilla Red Hat 9 install from source Product: Wine Version: 20030813 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: wine-misc AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.com ReportedBy: wine@deforest.org
Downloaded wine source. Compiled in the usual way: "./configure; make dep && make; sudo make install", then "rehash", then "wine". Dumps core.
Running gdb on the constructed wine binary yields greek to me but may help you:
