compile Wine (32bit) on 64bit Ubuntu

[ahso]

Hi
anyone compiled wine (32bit) on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit?

The script install-wine-deps.sh want to remove quite a bit:

Especially the ia32* libs wich are needed for all 32bit apps,
hence I ask here.
Thanks

Read the sticky about Ubuntu 12.04. One of the bug links is for that issue.

I've tried and failed. I was going to write a script to do it with
a chroot, but then just started using a mix of 32 bit 12.04,
older Ubuntu, and other distros, didn't have any reason to punish myself
by putting up with 64 bit 12.04's failings.

I am running 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04 and used chroot to build a 32-bit version of wine 1.5.7 + patch(s). I needed to do this so I could test fixes for msxml3 problems that I reported. Dan Kegel pointed me towards http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit which provides the essential information. My build was successful and I am now able to run an extensive Microsoft VB6 application that incorporates:
-- binary direct access files
-- xml
-- Microsoft Access database files (via Jet Engine)
-- 3D OpenGL Viewer
-- Hyperlinks to Autodesk Volo View 3.0
-- Hyperlinks to Bentley View 2004 Edition

With a single exception, everything works! I have not yet figured out it how to run the OpenGL part of the application using /var/chroot/wine

NB: The OpenGL Viewer was the only part that ran correctly on the binary distro for wine 1.5.7

If anyone has knowledge on how to run OpenGL applications using /var/chroot/wine I'd appreciate comments.

Wine 1.5.8 binaries for Ubuntu are now available in the PPA. I installed the update and everything works correctly, including the OpenGL Viewer
