Package: dxvk Version: 1.7.3+ds1-1 Severity: normal dxvk currently depends on wine-development being available, or its patches can not be applied on the target WINE prefix.
In my experience, a WINE prefix patched in this way can then be used with a stable build of WINE ≥ 5.0. I suspect the dependency on the development build of WINE was justified when the packaged stable version of WINE was 4.x, but is no longer useful starting with Bullseye, that is coming with WINE 5.0.3 stable build. Since this dependency on wine-development is actually preventing dxvk to enter testing, I suggest studying the possibility to have it rely on wine (stable) instead. This is probably a bit late for Bullseye, but might help for an easier comeback with Bookworm, as well as for Bullseye backports. From what I see from the code, it might be as simple as editing the argument parsing snippet in debian/dxvk-setup/dxvk-setup [1] to drop the error message and the forced exit. If this is indeed the case, I can run some tests to ensure it has no side-effect as long as WINE ≥ 5.0 is available, and submit a patch through salsa.
