Package: libwine
Version: 0.9.20-1

Hello!

After upgrading from version 0.9.12~winehq1~1 from wine.sourceforge.net to the 
recent debian version, I cannot start wine any more.  Nor does winecfg work 
although both wine and winecfg are updated to 0.9.20-1.

The error message is in both cases "wine: failed to initialize: 
/usr/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory
Wine failed with return code 1"

I have checked by downgrading to the former version that with the former 
version that I had installed, the file /usr/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so was part of 
libwine, while with the debian package it is not.  I have searched the web for 
any hint on my problem but I have not found anything at all, that is, the 
problem does not seem to exist for others.

To make sure it is not due to my old configuration, I tried to start wine both 
with my old contents of ~/.wine, as well with one where I created a fresh 
~/.wine directory and copied the contents of /usr/share/wine/skel into that 
location.  This was due to the fact that I noticed that under the skel subtree 
a file ntdll.dll can be found.  However, the fresh configuration directory did 
not change anything.

Moreover, after everything else had failed, I installed the package winesetuptk 
version 0.7-1.1, but just to figure out that this is probably very outdated: it 
still creates a ~/.wine/config file, of which I have learned that it was only 
used for older versions of wine.  Maybe this package should not be installable 
with newer wine versions?  I at least have de-installed it again, since it did 
not help with my problem at all.

Here are more details about my system:
Linux marvin 2.6.16-2-686 #1 Fri Aug 18 19:01:49 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
libc-2.3.6.so

I can easily downgrade to my previous version, and my application will work 
again.  Thus, I will be grateful if you could help me with that issue, but it 
is not very pressing for me.

Many thanks for maintaining wine for debian.

Best regards,
Dirk Herrmann
