Well, like the header says, wine 0.9.10 fixes the annoying disappearing system font problem in wine 0.9.9. Finally! I’ve been holding back a full Debian dist-upgrade until the wine libraries catch up with what I need…
Unfortunately, the file path problem is still very much in existence. Stay tuned, though, because I just checked Wine HQ and it turns out that version 0.9.11 just came out.
