RELEASE-NOTES

This file contains information about the current release of Wine.
If you are new to Wine, read the files ANNOUNCE and README and the FAQ 
list first.
If you want to contribute code to Wine, read the DEVELOPER-HINTS. The
primary source of information to developers is the ChangeLog (next to
the source, of course).

1. make: No rule to make target foo/foo.o. Stop.
This frequently happens when a prior attempt to make foo.o failed.
In the current setup, make does not terminate then, but continues and
realises the problem later on. 'make' again and watch the output. Be
sure to analyze the problem before you report it to the newsgroup.

2. What are these questions in Configure?
- Emulator/Library: You need an emulator when you want to run MS-Win
    binaries. You need a library when you want to compile the source code
    of a Windows program.
- Language: Wine can present the system menu in multiple languages. Select
    one of English, German, or Norwegian here.
- Inter-process communication: Allows setting up a DDE conversation
    between different instances of Wine. Only really useful when
    building Wine as a library.
- Malloc debugging: When enabled, the mtrace and mcheck GNU libc functions
    are called. You might want to set the MALLOC_TRACE environment variable
    to a trace file name. If your system supports another way of malloc 
    debugging, feel free to add it.
- Config file: Sets the Wine environment. See README for details.

3. BAR.EXE used to work, but does not work anymore
Look at the ChangeLog to see what files have been changed. Try to undo
the particular patch and go partially back to the previous version. If
you have any suspicions, report them to the author or to the newsgroup.
