Hey everyone,
Here's a small series which removes compatibility glue for ancient distros. In particular - we bump to using 16 year old libxslt and 5 year old gnutls.
Amazing "update" right :-)
Joking aside, these are covered by all supported distros, including the distro packages linked on the winehq.org site.
In general we don't do that sort of thing. If you are making other changes to a piece of code and the backwards compatibility code gets in the way you can consider removing it, but otherwise you should just leave it alone.
Besides, there's no such thing as a list of "supported distros". As far as reasonably possible, we try to support anything that actual users are using; and we do have people using more than 5 year old installs.
