Hi
installed Ubuntu 12.04 64bit and wonder, if I should bother to install Wine 64bit?
Default download / tools/wineinstall says it needs 32 bit development files.
Hmm so I need a flag for 64bit compiling?
Does 64bit Wine run also any 32bit Windows apps?
Thanks
Wine 64 bit?

If you have those development files installed, you may need to make a symlink for Wine to find them. As to where, I don't know; I don't use Ubuntu. I do know that Ubuntu 12.04's multiarch support is very broken, to the point where even some people on the developer's mailing list have said they have switched distros because of it.ahso wrote: configure: error: FreeType 32-bit development files not found. Fonts will not be built.
whatever I install it's the same on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit trying to build 32bit as 64bit compiled but seems rubbish...
libfreetype6-dev_2.4.8-1ubuntu2_i386.deb seems to be very ugly packaged....it even removed nvidia-current and gcc at install...what would do such than some sick...
Any idea on how to figure what packages have been removed? Some more, probably not so funny for later.
I wanted to send a bug report but signing in is a true pain in the ass

You're better off with Chroot
I didn't install libfreetype6-dev:i386 myself because of what it wanted to remove:
build-essential dkms g++ gcc gcc-multilib libcairo2-dev libfontconfig1-dev libfreetype6-dev libgtk2.0-dev libpango1.0-dev libxft-dev nvidia-current
oss-linux
You will find the history of package operations in this file:
/var/log/apt/history.log
I've myself resigned from trying to build Wine on Precise and I'm building it from chroot environment and only the 32bit version. Than I move it to my standard 12.04 64bit.
Here you will find Ubuntu bug report on this matter. Eric Pouech managed to hack his Precise in the way he could build Wine. From my point of view you're better off with Chroot.
