wine users - Oct 2008 - After update and compilation of Wine - version isn't changed

I downloaded Wine sources using git-gui, compiled it and it worked great. Then I
wanted to update it, so I run sudo make uninstall, then in git-gui I did remote
- fetch from origin.

Then I did
./configure
make depend
make -j4
sudo make install

And when I checked the version with wine --version, it gave me the old one

wine-1.1.5-399-g82f77cc

instead of

wine-1.1.5-xxx-g3a2dda1

where "xxx" is number of commits since last release (I guess). The
last commit is "msvcrt: Pass the command interpreter as exe name from
_wpopen."

So did I make something wrong? Is my Wine up-to-date? What is the meaning of
lif- whoops, wrong forum :-P

Some time ago I had the same problem, but then I just erased all sources and
downloaded them from scratch. I don't want to do this each time I update
Wine.

Btw I'm on Ubuntu 8.04.

You should use either:

Code:
git pull


Or

Code:
git fetch; git rebase origin


Much more info about git you probably don't need:

Really? I seem to remember seeing more than one thread (besides this one) where
the person had to uninstall the old version before the new one would install
properly. (Though perhaps they all fell into the category of "something
screwy.")
