wine users - Mar 2012 - Wine 1.4 on Ubuntu

Hi there,

I tried to install latest Wine version 1.4 on Ubuntu 10.04. But the problem is
that I can not find the stable 1.4.0 release. In Synaptic I only can find 1.4.0
rc6.

Will this be fixed?

Packages are built by the distros; ask your distro package maintainer.

Absolutely true. Question? The next time you have a problem with Ubuntu, do you
submit the complaint and then wait for Canonical to fix it? Or do you try to
find a way around it the issue and keep going? Personally, I do both
simultaneously.

Thanks you for your usefull Post......
