[Request] Support for more older wine versions

[ghost]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some games only work for older wine versions. You can only install some of the newer wine versions with bottles.

Describe the solution you'd like
That you can install the older wine and proton versions.

I would have to search for where you can download the old wine versions first.

You can grab older versions of lutris from their GitHub repo

Where can I do this on their repo?
Is there a folder or something that has all their wine versions and you can download them?
And when I found it,do I just have to make a pr that lists all wine versions that are downloadable?

You can find them in the Release section of the repository, here an example of a component: https://github.com/bottlesdevs/components/blob/main/runners/wine/lutris-5.21.json

If it's so easy to add wine versions,why aren't they all already added in bottles?

I don't think there is any interest on their part in doing so. The runners you see have been added by the Bottles community.

If every wine version is available in the lutris repo,would it be possible to add every version at once in a pr?

The community is free to add as many runners as they want, as long as they work.
