Bugs and problems

Having trouble?
You may want to consult the list of current Fedora Wine Bugs.

Before reporting bugs against Wine please make sure your system is fully up to date.

dnf update

Also check if a newer version is available in updates-testing.

dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing update wine

If you are using the proprietary graphics drivers please remove them from your system and try again, as they are known to cause problems.

When debugging Wine, your goal is to determine if the issue is one of code functionality or packaging in Fedora.

Check the Wine Application Database to see if your application is supported, or if there are known issues that match yours. Anything that falls into this category is a bug in upstream code functionality.

The next step is to see if the problem persists with a clean ~/.wine folder. To try this without losing your old configuration:

mv ~/.wine ~/.wine-save

Afterwards try to trigger the bug again. Your original wine folder can be restored with:

rm -fr ~/.wine; mv ~/.wine-save ~/.wine

If your application still does not work but has been working in a previous version of wine it is probably a regression. Consider filling a bug in the upstream Wine-staging bug tracking system. Do not file bugs in the Winehq.org bugzilla unless told to do so.

If you really think that your bug is Fedora-related, file a bug against the Wine component in Fedora's bug tracking system.

Updates-Testing

If you use the version of wine in the updates-testing repository then please log into bodhi and comment on the build, including any problems that may be in the packaging, naming, or elsewhere. The build needs positive karma to be pushed to the updates repository.
