Hi, here is a fix for an easily-reproduceable crash in Wine. I reproduced it several times while running Quicken 98. The enclosed patch fixes my crashes. Also mentioned at http://www.winehq.com/?issue=328 under title "X Error".
Created attachment 117946 [details, diff] wine-0.9.36.patch Ebuild patch.
Created attachment 117947 [details, diff] wine-badpixmap.patch
usually i just wait until upstream merges that and then i pull the fix ...
This patch is still required in wine-0.9.37, otherwise wine crashes while running Quicken 98: X Error of failed request: BadPixmap (invalid Pixmap parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 54 (X_FreePixmap) Resource id in failed request: 0x2a01216 Serial number of failed request: 46978 Current serial number in output stream: 47087
Upstream still has not fixed this in 0.9.38. Can we please have an ebuild with this patch in portage?
upstream says patch is not correct; so just wait for them
I want a usable wine now. So I've added it to berkano overlay.
the wine package gets just enough time slice from me to see version bumps and bug fixes ... any sort of custom patching is out of the question if you want a higher level of support then you will need to become a dev and maintain it yourself
