push 6.15 to the aur - Githubissues

nicman23 commented 3 years ago

is there a reason it is being kept back?

M-Reimer commented 3 years ago

I don't use 6.15. 5.18 is up to date here.

nicman23 commented 3 years ago

oh so the 6.15 branch is not up to date?

M-Reimer commented 3 years ago

Since the very beginning of this whole "patchy" situation there were two solutions.

The first one, which is maintained here, which requires a patch to glibc (maintained here as "wine-lol-glibc")
And the second one, which requires you to disable "vsyscall32" globally.

As I don't want to change a global setting (and especially one which is meant to improve 32 bit application performance) just to play one game, I decided to make the glibc variant more usable.

And the current situation is now that there exists an updated patch for 6.15 which allows you to use it if you disable vsyscall32 globally and all I was able to get to work is version 5.18 which, as always, uses the "glibc approach" together with wine-lol-glibc.

But as mentioned in my README: https://github.com/M-Reimer/wine-lol#contributor-notes-about-wine-version-updates I won't accept requests of Wine updates as Issue. If you manage to get the glibc-based patch to work with 6.15 and provide this as tested pull request, then I would be more than happy to merge it. All I can tell you is that I was not able to get it working. But feel free to try on your own.
