Hi,
the latest version of Wine found in koji is 1.1.38, which was released in february this year. The latest mainstream Wine is 1.1.44.
Why isn't there a newer version compiled for Fedora?
Thanks in advance, Zoltán Böszörményi

You'd have to ask the maintainer ... there is a bug open here https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580024

Updates are delayed due to some legal questions. I will push an upgrade as soon as this is resolved.

Mind documenting those issues in the aforementioned bug? Unless there are disclosure issues to worry about, of course.

I guess the legal problem(s) may come from the fact that newer Wine has cut out its own MP3 decoder and instead, it uses dlopened libmpg123. How does it differ from the DVD playing situation? Xine, MPlayer, etc. uses libdvdcss via dlopen if available. And the user, not the distributor adds the decoding facility...
Best regards, Zoltán Böszörményi

This is not the legal issue at issue here. As you've noted, dlopening libraries is not a problem for Fedora (including those troublesome libraries is the problem).

P.S. Please don't ask me what the legal issue is.
