[pkg-wine-party] Bug#760509: Bug#760509: wine: Wine : Office 2010 no longer installs usably.

[Emmanuel Charpentier]

Two more datapoints :

- I tried to install wine-development instead of wine : same results.

- The problem with Powerpoint comes from the fact that Wine does not use
the updated riched20.dll shipped with Office 2010 and is fixed by
overriding it in winecfg (native, builtin).

HTH,
