[gobolinux-users] Wine 0.9.0: wineprefixcreate error ...incompatible with gobolinux

[teique]

I run Wine 0.9.36 "flawlessly" (with game Soldat for ex.), tho I 
compiled it myself, no tricks, mainly just set the --prefix properly as 
I remember..
instead of patching I suggest updating to the latest :)
