Package: wine
Version: N/A
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Debian maintainer,
On Friday, August 31, 2007, I notified you of the beginning of a review process
concerning debconf templates for wine.
The debian-l10n-english contributors have now reviewed these templates,
and the proposed changes are attached to this bug report.
Please review the suggested changes are suggested, and if you have any
objections, let me know in the next 3 days.
Please try to avoid uploading wine with these changes right now.
The second phase of this process will begin on Friday, September 21, 2007, when
I will
coordinate updates to translations of debconf templates.
The existing translators will be notified of the changes: they will
receive an updated PO file for their language.
Simultaneously, a general call for new translations will be sent to
the debian-i18n mailing list.
Both these calls for translations will request updates to be sent as
individual bug reports. That will probably trigger a lot of bug
reports against your package, but these should be easier to deal with.
The call for translation updates and new translations will run until
about Friday, October 12, 2007. Please avoid uploading a package with fixed or
changed
debconf templates and/or translation updates in the meantime. Of
course, other changes are safe.
Please note that this is an approximative delay, which depends on my
own availability to process this work and is influenced by the fact
that I simultaneously work on many packages.
Around <DAY25>, I will contact you again and will send a final patch
summarizing all the updates (changes to debconf templates,
updates to debconf translations and new debconf translations).
Again, thanks for your attention and cooperation.

-_Description: Moving /usr/share/wine/drivec to /var/lib/wine/drivec
- The previous default Drive C location in /usr/share/wine violates the
- Filesystem Hierarchy Standard and is thus being relocated to

- you have a .winerc or have written scripts that depend on the old
- location, you must update these yourself.

+_Description: Remove old wine.conf file?
Wine no longer tries to load /etc/wine.conf by default. Thus, users that
don't have a ~/.winerc (or ~/.wine/config) file will not be able to run
- Wine, unless they set up a ~/.wine/config file for themselves. This is
- easily done with the winesetup tool, found in the winesetuptk package (or
- else each user can copy the old /etc/wine.conf to ~/.winerc and let wine
- convert it). If you remove the /etc/wine.conf file, then winesetup will
- launch automatically for users that don't have a config file, instead of
- requiring the users to do any of the above themselves.
