Wine-ge questions

Closed this issue · 5 comments

It would be great if wine-ge could be updated, currently its wine-8.0 (Staging) which is quite old, thanks.

wine-ge is on version 8.14, as can be seen through nix flake search github:fufexan/nix-gaming#wine-ge. It might report the version as 8.0 when running wine --version, but it builds from the correct branch.

Oh I see, thanks!

One more question, why does wine-ge point to wine-proton and not https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/wine-ge-custom?

The wine-ge-custom repository contains the build instructions to build a functional wine. You can see that proton-wine is pulled as a git submodule, and optionally combined with staging patches.

We do not need that functionality, since we rely on the wine builder inside Nixpkgs.

I see, thanks!
