“One of the hiccups in Bordeaux, a for-profit,
costs-$20 implementation of Wine that allows for easy installation
of a variety of Windows applications in Unix/Linux environments, is
that while installing the IrfanView image editor is clickably easy,
users are on their own when it comes to the IrfanView plugins.“In my workflow, the IrfanView plugins are an essential part of
the IrfanView experience. That’s a fancy way of saying I need the
plugins.“I managed to get those plugins installed the last time I
installed Bordeaux (and for the record, I’m a paying customer), and
along with some incompatibility between the newer Wine base
supplied by Bordeaux and the older environment of Debian Lenny, the
experience wasn’t as smooth as it should be.”
