Binary searching is very efficient. As far as the theory goes I am confident that a binary search for the bug should take 12 or or less itinerations. The problem with this is that sometimes there are other regressions that mask the original regression. I do not have lotus notes (any version) but I do know about regression testing using CVS.

If a binary search needs to be done, I'll do it. (I can build and install Wine in about 10 minutes on my system, so the compile time won't be a problem.) I am hoping to avoid it, however, because I'll have to carve out and set up a complete test partition; I always use RPM to install software on my production systems, and I don't want to spend the time tweaking the SPEC file for each build.
Hopefully someone will be able to make sense of a message trace.

Wouldn't it be possible to just install it in a scratch directory in the home dir or in /tmp? That's what I do now for test builds, and it works pretty well. I just use a wrapper script (yes, another) to wine, which sets up the environment variables needed for it to work (PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.).
In fact, I attach it here if you'd need it (or if somebody else needs it). Of course, you also need to tell ./configure --prefix=/where/you/want/it, then it's a normal make depend, make, make install.
The first time, you'll also need to modify your wine.conf and install the basic registry. And when you're finished with it, rm -rf (or F8 in mc).
