Just when you think you can stop drinking, Wine 4.0 has another release candidate available

Just before the weekend hits you in the face like a bad hangover when you realise it's Monday already, there's another bottle of Wine ready for you.

Of course, we're not talking about the tasty liquid! Put down the glass, it's the other kind of Wine. The one used to run your fancy Windows programs and games on Linux. Doing their usual thing, developer Alexandre Julliard announced that the Wine 4.0 Release Candidate 2 is officially out the door today.

While this release is nothing spectacular it is an important one, the more bugs they're able to tick off the list the better the 4.0 release will be for more people to use it.

With that said, there's no new features and only 11 bugs noted as sorted for this release candidate:

  19184  File copying fails during installation of Mordor
  23282  SpeQ: Wrong coded linefeed
  25734  Magic: The Gathering Battlegrounds trial hangs upon startup
  36430  valgrind shows a possible leak in shell32/tests/autocomplete.c
