Wine Developers Concerned With Ubuntu Dropping 32-bit Support With Ubuntu 19.10

https://www.linuxuprising.com/2019/06/wine-developers-concerned-with-ubuntu.html
#Wine#Ubuntu#LinuxThe news that Ubuntu will drop support for the 32-bit x86 architecture was discussed recently by the Wine developers, on the Wine-devel mailing list. The Wine developers are concerned with this news because many 64-bit applications still use a 32-bit installer, or some 32-bit components. https://libranet.de/display/0b6b25a8-125d-0cae-ea4e-0b7352233422
