No - I'm passing on what I was told on a forum about the experience of someone else with about eariler versions. That person has little technical ability, so I won't get any information from there. I've only encountered it in 14.10 and 15.04.
Please - Mint did NOT compile the working wine version. Mint uses the Ubuntu repo, and I have checked - the package seems to be the same one. This is why I'm saying that this is an upsteam bug in a non-wine package. The following are the wine packages in Mint. They were installe using apt-get from inside Mint: wine1.6_1%3a1.6.2-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb wine1.6-amd64_1%3a1.6.2-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb wine1.6-i386_1%3a1.6.2-0ubuntu4_i386.deb wine_1%3a1.6.2-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb and wine-mono0.0.8_0.0.8-0ubuntu1_all.deb -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1414995 Title: wine will not open Microsoft .msi installer files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.6/+bug/1414995/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
