Description

Is this a new report?

Yes

System Info

Void 6.6.11_1 x86_64 AuthenticAMD uptodate rrmFFF

Package(s) Affected

wine-gecko-2.47.4_1

Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

No response

Expected behaviour

Both 64-bit and 32-bit packages are supposed to exist.

Actual behaviour

Only 32-bit version of the package exists, resulting in wine complaining about wine-gecko missing, when 64-bit application is run, e.g. old offline java installers.

Steps to reproduce

Run any application that needs gecko.
