Compiling WINE source

[tone]

Hi, I have two questions. I downloaded the 440mb wine-dirs and I have the following issue:

Code: Select all

Rob@Rob:~/Desktop/to_install/wine-dirs/wine-source
$ sudo ./configure && -4j make
[sudo] password for Rob:

configure: error: Cannot build a 32-bit program, you need to install 32-bit development libraries.

Can you please tell me what I need to install for gcc for 32bit development libraries?

Also, which branch of wine is wine-dirs? Is it stable, devel or staging?

Thanks very much,
Rob

"wine-dirs" is not a branch of Wine. Where did you download this from?

As for what packages you need to install, packaging and package naming vary greatly by distro, and you haven't told us what distro you're on. If you're on one of the distros we build packages for, our download repository includes the src.rpm (Fedora) and the dsc, diff.gz, and orig.tar.gz (Debian/Ubuntu) generated by the OBS.

...

Actually that is what the current WineHQ Wiki instructions say for Building Wine ...

The Git Clone for Wine is directed to the directory:

Code: Select all

~/wine-dirs/wine-source

via:

Code: Select all

git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git ~/wine-dirs/wine-source

A bit random...
