Because if there's two things in the world I don't care about it's
wine and the nvidia driver.  So I won't spend any of my free time
trying to unbreak them when I've got more important things to do.


do you care about release goals ? you know that multiarch is one of
them, right ?

do you care about the social contract ? you know, that little
sentence "Our priorities are our users"...

you don't care about wine & the nvidia driver ?
Fine. Like it or not, but it's not about wine or the nvidia drivers.
This bug is about multiarch and we -the users- are just asking for that.
And it doesn't require you to work on it, patches have
already been written and posted in this bug report


Cheers,
