This quarter has seen seven updates to the + wine-devel port that closely tracks upstream + development as well as updates to its helper ports + (wine-gecko-devel and wine-mono-devel):

+ +

Stable releases: 1.6.2 (1 port revision)
Development releases: 1.7.40 through 1.7.46

+ +

The i386-wine-devel port has packages built for amd64 for + &os; 8.4, 9.1+, 10.1+ and CURRENT.

+ +

Accomplishments include:

+ +

Rename wine-compholio to + wine-staging (to match upstream developments).

+ +

Future development on Wine will focus on:

Add the getdirentries(2) patch to the wine-devel port.
Redevelop and upstream the getdirentries(2) patch.
Redevelop and upstream the kernel32 Makefile patch.
Add support to the i386-wine port for pkg 1.5 (library + conflicts currently prevent support).
Add support for WoW64: +
- Reduce the i386-wine port to just the components + required for WoW64.
- Rename the i386-wine port to + wow64.
- Make the wine ports depend on the wow64 ports when built + on amd64.
- Investigate and verify the interactions between Wine64 + and WoW64.
- Investigate possible update approaches for the + wow64 ports (that have to be pre-compiled) and how updating + with the wine ports will work.
+

+ +

Maintaining and improving Wine is a major undertaking + that directly impacts end-users on &os; (including many + gamers). If you are interested in helping please contact us. + We will happily accept patches, suggest areas of focus or have + a chat.
