Eh? What is that you essentially think that I am doing??? All I have done at
the moment is upgrade binary Wine RPMs and report that Wine core-dumps! ("Core
dump BAD").

The only other registry tweaking that I have done was needed to persuade the
app to run with a clean wineprefix directory, at your behest.

Please remember to tell Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu and all the other distros. By
the sound of it, *none* of your users are doing this.

WoW is simply an example of a popular Windows application with an extremely
non-trivial installation procedure; something that no-one in their right mind
would want to repeat every time that a new version of Wine is released. I
actually reported this bug about a completely different application.
