Are you sure this is the right mailing list ? I do not find any "about.cfg" 
file in wine, please check where that file is comming from. Also check from 
upstream server and latest release that you can reproduce the issue. There are 
little chances wesnoth team actually ever uploaded anything to that service, 
usually such sites feed themselves, so it will help you tell where to direct 
your report.

A patch is certainly welcomed by the project the file belongs to. Telling 
people to fix their stuff is just rude and has a lot of chances of getting you 
ignored.

Lastly, unless you are doing some sort of dogfood session for wine, native 
Linux version of wesnoth exists (and chances are Ubuntu already packages it).
