[Bug 23557] New: wine versions 1.1.x not listed

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23557

Summary: wine versions 1.1.x not listed
           Product: WineHQ Apps Database
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: appdb-unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

If I try to submit an app, a version or a test for appdb, I have to choose wine
version. I see 1.0.0, 1.0.1 and 1.2.rcx. I test the app on 1.1.42 and I know
that the silver rank is not achievable under wine 1.0.1. I have no possibility
to install wine 1.2. Something must be changed.

why can't you install one of the previous 6 versions of Wine?  Packages are
usually up to date for popular/recent distros.

If you have trouble compiling help is at hand via the forum @
http://forum.winehq.org

Of these 6 most recent versions listed, the oldest was released two and a half
months ago.  The reason for not having more than the 6 most recent is that Wine
is released so frequently with many fixes, people are most often interested in
the latest behavior.

The appdb allows browsing for applications based on wine version
tested with, and it would be quite useful to be able to look for
apps tested with 1.1 much further back than the existing limit of
six.  IMHO we should increase that number significantly.

That's by design. AppDB lists only last 6 beta versions and release versions.

Yes, I know it's by design, but it's still broken.

I would reopen this but I don't want to get into a pissing match.

I use the freshest binary which is 1.1.42 for Debian. I don't feel like
compiling. Is it an alternative: compile or stop testing and stop feeding
appdb?

Why should all the people waste time for compiling? Let a few compile and the
rest use binaries. Let's be effective.

Supporting at least the most recent version in Debian seems reasonable.

We been here already. Those changes where made for a reason. If you do not have
a fresh binary version for your distro it's your distro packager's problem.
Here we assume you compile Wine from source before reporting any problems.

Closing. File bug with Debian for not providing fresh Wine packages. Or compile
Wine from source.
