--- Comment #42 from Jerome Leclanche adys.wh@gmail.com 2012-02-27 10:49:05 CST --- (In reply to comment #41) Stable major versions are released every couple years. Users are in no danger in running development versions with software such as wine, because in Wine nothing is implemented by default, and development versions either implement new features or fix broken ones. Regardless of your setup, if you are running years old versions of wine, feedback on bugs is pretty useless.
If there are further issues with irfanview, new bugs should be opened. That's how wine developers choose to manage their bugs, and it works quite well.
