I only bother rebuilding wine when I hit a problem, or I'm doing an otherwise fairly big set of upgrades to everything else on the system, so I don't keep it running on the 'latest', though I will mention I find it very rare that it gives me even the slightest problem that I can blame on Wine itself. -- Poison [BLX] Joshua M.
