It's a long time since it was fixed.   I reported the bug at: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.6/+bug/1414995 and it 
did have a duplicate: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.6/+bug/1383214  The fix 
was actually an upstream fix to one of the gnu components in wine.  The 
Ubuntu bug that I reported was marked as fixed more than a month ago.

The problem is still there in the version of wine that is in the current 
package in 15.04, and 14.10.  There is no package that contains the fix 
in the Ubuntu repo.  Mint uses an earlier Ubuntu package, which is why I 
am able to work with it.  I think the problem began in 14.10.

Regards,		Barry.
