Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

"These emulators only work on <emphasis>x86</emphasis> (Intel-based) computers, and will not function on <emphasis>AMD64</emphasis> or <emphasis>PowerPC</emphasis> computers."

Wine works fine on 64bit Ubuntu. As PowerPC is no longer an officially supported platform i suggest removing the line all to getter.

Thanks AJenbo, I've removed that line. It seems that 64 bit support was added in wine 1.2.
