Bug #: 31567 Summary: There is no reference from http://www.winehq.org/download/deb to http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/binary/ Product: WineHQ.org Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: www-unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: fracting@gmail.com Classification: Unclassified
While translating the Faq from English to Chinese, I've noticed about the below sentence again:
=== 2.5. How can I download older versions of Wine for Ubuntu? Some old version are archived at http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/binary/ . (Shouldn't http://www.winehq.org/download/deb link to this?) ===
I remembered I ever asked on #wine-hackers but seems no one replied, now I decided to file a bug for it ;-)
Hopefully someone could fixed it, or provide a reason that why there is no such a link, and let's fix the Faq instead ;-)
Best regards, keep the great work!

The FAQ already has the answer and we don't really want to encourage people to download old versions of Wine unless they absolutely have to and absolutely know what they're doing.

--- Comment #3 from Frédéric Delanoy frederic.delanoy@gmail.com 2013-07-29 07:47:19 CDT --- There's already a link in http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting, where it's most useful.
And as you mentioned, it's already in the FAQ, and BTW the homepage says "Download - Install the *latest* wine" (emphasis added).
So resolving WONTFIX (I'll fix the FAQ to remove the comment, though )
