I wonder if the Tahoma fonts not working anymore bug is now fixed

Edit: Not a real issue since there is a workaround Its great to have a choice like wine staging to use.

In this wine version origin finish game install however origin appears error at finish but when ask reboot for error, game appears correctly installed (tested with simcity 2000)

Maybe more later upload other results with other games

I'm sure bitching about it on every Phoronix article about a WINE point release will hasten its arrival...

PulseAudio support please.

Some Linux distributions have PulseAudio support for Wine as add-on.
Example on: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/b...buildID=623018

That's useless for me as I use Arch and not Fedora.

I need the support to be in wine upstream.

If you need it you can always try Wine Staging, there is even a repository (not talking about AUR) on Arch to use it

Arch is always vanilla, so no extra features. Wine works just fine with pulseaudio-alsa, this is not the case with unpatched firefox under kde.
