Please add wine-0.9.18 to the tree ...
Rename and digest 0.9.17 ebuild. Then it compiles and works (at least on my ~amd64 system).
can we change the esd-useflag depend on esound || pulseaudio?
I think you still need esound to link esd support in the app. Pulseaudio can provide the runtime daemon but not the lib.
confirm simple version bump compiles fine and appears ok on my ~amd64 system.
