IEs 4 Linux 2.0 beta 8 (latest before final?)
25.06.2006
Again, here we are. Beta 8 is out. Get it here. There are very few changes:
- New translation: Hebrew
- Bug fixed: no cabextract.log
- Bug fixed: all IEs are opened after installation
Here on my Ubuntu Dapper everything seems fine with all latest wine versions, 0.9.16, 0.9.15, 0.9.14….
Maybe there still are some problems with cabextract, please tell me if you get some error. FreeBSD still is unsupported because of bash issues; if you want to run on FreeBSD, use a bash port or help me support your OS!
Probably our next release will be IEs4Linux 2.0, finally!

This patch removes the need for “seq”, which isn’t present in Mac OS X.

It still launches all the IEs which ere installed after installation. I’ve made a patch which makes this undesirable behaviour optional, and off by default. It also stops the installer asking for installation options if they’re all specified on the command line, adds command-line help, and adds a few more useful command-line switches patterned after the interactive dialoguery.
The changes are geared towards supporting central installs for multiple users; this is a situation which should ideally be non-interactive, and where the master-copy WINE bottles shouldn’t have been sampled even once by the user performing the initial installation. It’s just good waitering.
