Sorry for the late reply. Indeed the version in Maverick has some improvements. Yet it happens somethings that some arabic strings that don't get joined, and other strings that get printed as "????" -- أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) Digital design engineer GPG KeyID: 0xEDDDA1B7 GPG Fingerprint: 8206 A196 2084 7E6D 0DF8 B176 BC19 6A94 EDDD A1B7 -- Implement Arabic shaping in wine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/381882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Sabily Team, which is a direct subscriber. Status in Wine: Confirmed Status in “wine” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: wine In the current version of wine, the arabic characters in a windows application would appear unjoined. The reason is that wine removed ICU support from wine, according to this upstream bug report (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7150): "ICU was removed because it introduced ABI dependencies into Wine that were unreasonable for general consumption (plus it bloated parts of wine by as much as, if not over, 1000%). As such, any patch that is based on ICU is unlikely to go into the main code." Anyways, I applied this patch to wine_1.0.1-0ubuntu6, and I don't see any significant size increase in wine. I don't know though about the ABI issue. I have attached the debdiff with this bug report, I hope it would be considered and included in Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sabily.team Post to : sabily.team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sabily.team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
