How do I update wine in one wineprefix?
- by Steve
Does anyone know how I can go about updating the version of wine that one prefix uses without self-destructing everything in it?
I want to bring it from 1.4 to 1.5.5 - I read on a forum that someone got the microphone working in Rosetta Stone with Ubuntu 12.04 and wine 1.5.5.
Thanks for any guidance on this matter. :)

Update: Issue resolved.
Thanks to zuberuber I was able to approach the issue in a different light. :)
I made a new prefix called "test" in PlayOnLinux. I compared the new prefix with the Rosetta prefix.
It contained a PlayOnLinux.cfg file along with the reg files.
It contained:
ARCH=x86
VERSION=1.5.0
I copied this over to the Rosetta prefix and adjusted it:
ARCH=x86
VERSION=1.4.1
After doing that, I was able to change it from 1.4.1 to 1.5.0. I confirmed it in the prefix's winecfg's About tab.
