You have to look around for it. I found wine-1.5.9-1: http://cesium.di.uminho.pt/pub/archlinu … pkg.tar.xz
You can try compiling from source https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … d020b8ba1c

Use Playonlinux to download the desired wine version from Tools -> Manage Wine Versions menu. Then either run the program from/through PoL or use wine variables to pinpoint to the newly downloaded wine version:
env WINEVER='1.5.22' ALSA_DEFAULT_PCM=wine WINEARCH=win32 WINEDEBUG=-all \
WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/WindowsXp \
WINEDDLOVERRIDES='ddraw=n,b;d3dx9_30=n;d3dx9_31=n;d3dx9_42=n;d3dx9_43=n' WINEFORCEMOUSEWARP=yes \
WINESERVER=$HOME/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/$WINEVER/bin/wineserver \
WINELOADER=$HOME/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/$WINEVER/bin/wine \
WINEDLLPATH=$HOME/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/$WINEVER/lib/wine \
wine explorer /desktop=APP_NAME,PRE_RES WINE_APP WINE_ARGS;
Adjust according to your needs. For more information read the manual
man wine

You might also have some luck with the Archlinux Rollback Machine @ http://seblu.net/a/arm/packages/q/qemu/

I don't understand why do you point to some qemu packages.

@Spider.007 Not recommended though. OP would have to edit/modify the wine package to use more than one version at the same time, not to mention, there might have been different dependencies back then, that could complicate the situation now. Changing versions would be to much unnecessary hassle.
Playonlinux is the way to go and using those deb binaries from one source makes them comparable between users for troubleshooting, unlike using random arm or self compiled packages.

Typo; I obviously meant http://seblu.net/a/arm/packages/w/wine/

Well he could just downgrade; no need to keep both the current plus the older one installed? Thanks for the Playonlinux pointer; it looks interesting.

@Spider.007, OP wants version 1.5.22 ...
'Just downgrading' means you have to get (as in 'find') at least a few pretty old packages and hope they'll work with the rest of the system.

Karol is right, and eventually you will most probably run into trouble with that approach.

Different applications run better on different wine versions (I learned the hard and time-consuming way), which is the reason there are so many packages under PoL, some have special patches for specific applications and multiple variants of the same wine version. With a little bit of scripting like in the template above, one can very easily and quickly test different wine versions. No need to touch systems packages, easily transferable and comparable between distributions.

Here is many old versions of packages for Arch Linux, including Wine .
