Am I misunderstanding something?
I'm trying to update my local NVidia binary driver for the latest
couple of kernels (5.7.10-201.fc32.x86_64 and later), but it's failing
to build because:

Recent kernels are still all being built with gcc 10.1.
Ralf,
With all due respect (i.e. none) I don't think your opinion is really
necessary here - you've made your feelings clear over the last long while
and I have to wonder what the heck you're still doing here if you hate the

Sorted out and working properly. I have no problem admitting I'm letting

At the very least, I think the package maintainer needs to be spoken to by
fedora people - swearing at bug reporters on the Fedora Bugzilla is
probably not "being excellent to each other".

I'd be a little worried about ransomeware with wine - I remember a virus
some years ago which did ugly stuff to excel files (IIRC), and it came in
through wine and trashed stuff in my $HOME. All my wine stuff now is done
in sandboxes.
