Bug Description

After over a month of testing and bugfixing, Wine 1.0 is supposed to be regression proof compared with earlier releases. Other than a new upstream version, the Intrepid package is nearly identical to the Hardy one.

So, please get Wine 1.0 in hardy-backports.

Marking confirmed since I can't mark triaged. The intrepid package builds perfectly in pbuilder and runs my Windows programs well.

Please update the backport with 1.0.0-1ubuntu4 from intrepid, it has a minor change to the .desktop file.

[01:01] <ScottK> YokoZar: Generally one files a new bug, but I think that will work. Is it really worth another backport?
[01:03] <YokoZar> ScottK: Well if the backported one is going to be SRUed, then I think so. The changes to the .desktop file to make it say "Wine Windows Program Loader" instead of "Wine Windows Emulator", but more importantly it also adds an association for .msi files. If we also update shared-mime-info, then users will be able to double click msi files.

ack from ubuntu-backporters for the update. I think it's worth doing.
