Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2015-03-14 17:28:22 UTC
wine < 1.6.1 doesn't have gx86-multilib deps and therefore would be useless once we drop emul-linux-x86. Please either drop it (or let us know that it's fine to drop along with emul-linux-x86), or update the deps to support multilib packages.

Technically, it could still be useful for 64-bit binaries. However, I doubt that those represent a significant amount of the users out there.

IMO, mask and remove in 30 days if no complaints. The newest of those is almost 3 years old.

Yeah, I was thinking of masking for removal in 30 days.  Just waiting to hear back from ryao and/or tetromino before moving forward with that.  Obviously, any users who feel otherwise should let me know ASAP.
