Wine 1.4.1 Brings A Load Of Bug-Fixes

Posted by Michael Larabel on June 16, 2012

The first stable release update for the Wine 1.4 series is now available.

As usual for stable Wine point releases, version 1.4.1 just packs in bug-fixes and translation updates.

More details are available from the WineHQ.org announcement. Wine 1.4.0 was officially released last March.

If you're not opposed to living on the bleeding-edge, there's already a lot of good features in the Wine 1.5 development series: work on a Direct3D shader compiler, Mono as an Add-On, OpenGL for the DIB, built-in JavaScript over using the Gecko engine, etc.
