Hi to All!
I'd like to inform all of you, about new q4wine release candidate. It is fully ready for testing and translation update process.
- Current release goals:
- Wine AppDB browser;
- Q4Wine helper;
- Logging subsystem;
- GUI improvements;
- CMake scripts updates;
You can get q4wine from git or download it from source forge mirror.
2translation team: We have 1 week for translation update. Please, if you can't do it in this terms -- inform me as soon as possible.
For now, q4wine has ability to query Wine AppDB database and get information on application compatibility with Wine.
To test it, you need build git version of q4wine, with -DWITH_WINEAPPDB=ON flag enabled.
Unfortunately, almost no one of wine devels not interested in my xml export script. Also I don't get any answer on my letter about hosting request at winehq.com host site. (Note: Before creating script, I ask for a hosting in appdb@winehq.org maillist and Alexander N. Sørnes says that it can be done. But...).
For now, I port xmlexport script to django framework and now, thx to Opium, we can host it on q4wine hosting site.
Note: Because we have no direct access to appdb database, we cant use it actual copy.
Thanks to Andrea Sciucca, q4wine packages for Slackware 13.0 distribution are available at web page of The Italian Slackware Community.
See our downloads page for details.
