Summary: Regression: Old 16-bit programs WON'T work!
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.43.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P1
         Component: wine-binary
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: amrhi@safe-mail.net
After many successful previous Wine upgrades, I upgraded from Version 0.9.42 to
the new Version 0.9.43, only to discover that NONE of my old Windows 3.1 games
will start up -- NONE of them. I NEVER had that problem with any earlier
version. I then uninstalled and re-installed with a different (but still
compatible) .rpm release -- no difference whatsoever. And yes, ALL of my 32-bit
programs worked just fine. As a result, I UNINSTALLED Version 0.9.43 and
re-installed Version 0.9.42 (I simply cannot adequately replace those great old
Windows 3.1 games).
So PLEASE fix this -- DON'T be like some developers lately who just don't seem
to care at all about any of the older stuff. Thank you.
P.S. In addition, "winecfg" was nothing but a 0-bit empty file -- it wouldn't
even run. Is that PROGRESS?
