Wine really had huge progress this year, so many things got fixed and implemented especially for winewayland.
What's so far is broken still is this:
* https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57456 [External Link]
* https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461063 [External Link]
But formally, it's a KDE bug.

That's bad. As if prices weren't high enough, now Samsung and SK Hynix will raise them even more.

Quoting: tohurYea it was a bug in the RC2 release because was several games I could not launch.. it motivated me to create my own package to go in my repos and block pulling it from sid archive but its the nature of tracking sid 1:1It's better with 0.8.2 but there is still some on exit memory corruption with it. I reported a bug.

Updated dxvk, vkd3d-proton and Mesa, as well as built mangohud 0.8.2 proper. No crashes with Cyberpunk 2077 so far, so I guess it was some already fixed regression somewhere.

Quoting: tohurSid? If so last I seen was still release candidate 2 .. I have 0.8.2 built in .debsYeah, I'll retest it with 0.8.2 proper to see if latest changes fixed that. Debian shouldn't have jumped the gun and packaged a pre-release version.

This version crashes Cyberpunk 2077 (at least Debian packaged one). Going back to 0.8.1 and will report it to them after some more testing.
