Following yesterday's release of [1]Wine 11.1 for kicking off the new post-11.0 development cycle, Wine-Staging 11.1 is now available for this experimental/testing version of Wine that present is around 254 patches over the upstream Wine state.

Besides re-basing those 250+ patches to the latest Wine Git state, the latest VKD3D Git code is also pulled into Wine-Staging 11.1. There is some new feature work with Wine-Staging... Landing the new patches for enabling the recent Adobe Photoshop versions to successfully install and run under Wine on Linux.

As covered last week, [2]the latest Adobe Photoshop installer is working and the app running with some new patches against the Wine code for its MSXML3 and MSHTML code. Those patches were cited in [3]Bug 47015 for upstream Wine around the Photoshop Creative Cloud 2019 screen hitting MSXML3 errors.

Upstream Wine Git hasn't yet taken those patches but now they are in Wine-Staging 11.1 for further testing by the community.

Hopefully the testing will go well and those patches will get picked up by an upstream Wine 11.x bi-weekly development release in the near future.

Besides those MSHTML/MSXML3 work to benefit Adobe software, there aren't any other new patches in Wine-Staging 11.1. Those looking for new binaries to test it out can find them via [4]WineHQ.org .
