> In Unbuntu 9.10 synaptic package manager, why are wine1.2 and wine listed separately in such a way that one or the other can be installed but not both?  Both indicate newest version is 1.1.38.  What is different between them and how should I choose?

I thought wine in ubuntu means the 1.0.1 release which is over a year
old and in most cases not the version you want to install even though
it is given the "stable" label. While 1.2 gets you the development
release.
