Wine - Wine cannot find the ncurses library

[outfit]

I just spent 2 hours writing this post and clicked a link and it deleted it.
I just broke my Dad's monitor. So now I am re-writing this with blood dripping from my hand.

I am trying to get Bovada poker working with wine on my arch box.
I installed wine using pacman.
According to the arch wiki I first had to enable the Multilib repository.
I did that then installed wine with:

Code: Select all

$ sudo pacman -S wine

Then downloaded Bovada Poker put it on a thumb drive and put it on my Asus Zenbook ux305 laptop in a directory
Now using wine:

Code: Select all

$ wine BovadaPoker.exe

I got a few messages about needing a few things so I aborted the install
I then installed the following:
wine_gecko and wine-mono

I did a bit a research and found the following thread
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=195878

After reading that I went through this list:
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/mult ... 6_64/wine/

I installed every optional dependency by hand
I then reinstalled wine. (I did not uninstall before reinstalling it) (not sure if this is a problem)

Back to trying to get it to work:

Code: Select all

$ wine BovadaPoker.exe

Some messages come up on the terminal including the one I really don't like:
Wine cannot find the ncurses library (libncursesw.so.5)
BUT
I still get the install window, asking where to install, I say C:
I also see the Bovada poker install window doing its thing.
Seems OK.
anyway here is some output on one of my tries that my be helpfull

Code: Select all

$ wine BovadaPoker.exe &> error.txt

Now I change to that directory and try to execute the Bovada Program

Code: Select all

$ wine BovadaPoker.exe

I get a bunch of terminal messages but again the first is most important:

But the Bovada window comes up and shows it is downloading some stuff (updates, etc...)
Then is exits
Here is some more usefull stuff

Any ideas of what to try?
I did what was said in the arch link.
I downloaded every optional dependency by hand and retried.
Still can't get it.
Wine is not finding the libncursesw.so.5 library
I want this to work so bad. I want windows off my computer.

Should I uninstall everying with pacman including all dependencies and try installling from the git page?
Or is this just something very simple I am doing wrong?
thank you in advance for the help.

[dimesio]

Wine is not finding the libncursesw.so.5 library

Does that file exist on your computer? If so, where?

[outfit]

nope

Code: Select all

# find / -type f -name libncursesw.so.5

Nothing was returned

In the / directory I have these two directories:
lib lib64
the arch wiki says they are symlinks to /usr/lib
In the /usr/lib directory I have a wine directory with a bunch of *.so files and *.def files
In the /usr directory there is also a lib32 directory and a lib64 directory
in the /usr/lib32 directory there is also a wine directory with a bunch of .so files and .def files
in the /usr/lib/lib64 directory there is also a wine directory with a bunch of .so and .def files

I can't find that libncursesw.so.5 file anywhere.
I need to learn a bit about all this symlink stuff.

Code: Select all

$ ls /usr/lib/wine/libnc*
No such file or directory

Code: Select all

$ ls /usr/lib32/wine/libnc*
No such file or directory

Code: Select all

$ ls /usr/lib64/wine/libnc*

Code: Select all

$ ls /usr/lib32/libncurses*

Thanks for the response and help

[outfit]

I just wanted to say I tried both

Code: Select all

$ wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Internet\ Explorer/iexplore.exe

and

Code: Select all

$ wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Internet\ Explorer/iexplore.exe

Both commands worked. I am able to use Internet Explorer

I will do more research on this libncursesw.so.5 library
Looks like I have libncursesw.so.6 and not .5

I don't know if I can just find the .5 version?
I will read a bit more...
But wine does work. So it looks like a problem with the app trying to use (an older version???)

[outfit]

Is there a way to make a wine app use libncursesw.so.6 instead of .5 ?

[Utumno]

Basically what happens I think is that pacman installs lib32-ncurses 6 while wine looks for 5. Would it be enough to

ln -s libncursesw.so.6 libncursesw.so.5 ?

Does this qualify as a bug report ?

[spoon0042]

Is there a way to make a wine app use libncursesw.so.6 instead of .5 ?

Well yes, I guess. It would involve rebuilding wine though.

You'll probably want to look around or ask on the arch forums how to get wine working under arch. It's possible (I don't know for sure) that the wine packages you found are just out of date since they're trying to use an older version of ncurses.


edit: I found this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=202575
Apparently arch just updated the ncurses package which seems to be breaking some things. You can wait a week and see if a new wine package gets uploaded or try one of the solutions in that thread if you're feeling brave.

e2: It might be as simple as installing the aur package here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ncurses5-compat-libs
I don't use arch so I have no idea how that works though.

[outfit]

I installed this package from the AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ncurses5-compat-libs

Code: Select all

$ ls /lib/ncucrsesw.*
libncursesw.a   libncursesw.so   libncursesw.so.5   libncursesw.so.5.9   libnucrses.so.6   libncursesw.so.6.0

This looks good so far.
I reinstalled wine with pacman
then

Code: Select all

$ wine Bovadapoker.exe

about a page of info on terminal, same as above
a .wine directory was created

Code: Select all

$ wine .wine/drive_c/Bovada/BovadaPoker.exe
Wine cannot find the ncurses library (libncursesw.so.5)

BUT
I do notice this

Code: Select all

$ ls /usr/lib32/libncurses*
libncurses++.a     libncurses.so     libncurses++w.a     libncursesw.so     libncursesw.so.6     libncursesw.so.6.0

The .5 version is not in this directory
Now,

Code: Select all

$ ls /usr/lib64/libncursesw.*
libncursesw.a     libncursesw.so   libncursesw.so.5   libncursesw.so.5.9   libncursesw.so.6   libncursesw.so.6.0

It is in the /lib64 directory

I wonder if I just copy the libncursesw.so.5 file from the /usr/lib64 directory and put it in the /usr/lib32 directory?
edit: this did not work...

Should I try reinstalling wine from GIT?
What would you all try next?
I want this to work so bad. It is the only thing I need windows for.
Thanks again for the help.

[outfit]

I uninstalled the wine with pacman and reinstalled it from:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wine-git/
It took about 1 hour to compile on my laptop.
I then installed wine_gecko and wine-mono with pacman
I downloaded BovadaPoker.exe

Code: Select all

[dimesio]

The package you linked to is for an outdated version of Wine, but that's not the real problem. Your build is broken; as to why, there is a known issue with gcc 5.1 & 5.2, so if you compiled with one of those versions, that could be the problem. https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38653

Is this the app? https://cdn1-a.imagestore.lv/static/pok ... aPoker.exe

yeah, that is the app.
and yeah, I just checked and I used gcc version 5.2

Should I try downloading and installing from the actual wine git page?
Or will that be a bit difficult for me to do?
Is there some reading I should do?

Or is the first version of wine I tried from the pacman install good and The BovadaPoker app the problem?

[outfit]

I reinstalled wine with pacman.
I made sure Every optional dependency was installed.

This is the exact output I get when trying to install Bovada:

A .wine directory was created and inside it is what looks like the windows file system.
I ran Internet explorer that was installed in Program Files and ran it from Program Files(x86)
It worked great.
Durring the Bovada install (The one that timed out (output above))
A Bovada Directory was created in ~/.wine/drive_c/
Inside it is what looks like a Bovada install. I even compared that directory to the install on Windows.

Next I try running Bovada

Code: Select all

$ wine BovadaPoker.exe

I do not get the ncurses error but I still can't get it to run.
It seems to crash durring the live update that Bovada does.
I am assuming Bovada does not work with wine.
Is there any more things I can try? (I guess work on the fixme stuff)
I have alot of reading to do.

Thanks

[dimesio]

There's no crash in your log, and I don't get a crash either. The live update completes successfully. The problem is that the Lobby window never appears, though the process is running in the background.

File a bug.

[outfit]

I filed a bug report.
It is a little sloppy, it was my first time doing that.
Thanks again for all the help.

[spoon0042]

I remember trying this and it looked like it worked as far as I could tell. I was probably using a staging build though.

How long ago was it?
Someone on the poker fourms said it has not worked for a couple years?
The Lobby window will not open for me and dimesio had the same problem.

[dimesio]

My test was on the development branch; you might want to test wine-staging, and if it does work in that branch, mention it in the bug report.

Just when the link was posted upthread.

I can try it again to verify sometime this weekend.

[spoon0042]

ok, I was wrong, apparently it needs some version of .net. (I think that's the difference, anyway.)

edit: Yeah, I think you need winetricks dotnet40. And maybe winetricks dotnet20 first. Maybe, this is a pain in the ass. Better throw in winetricks corefonts while you're at it.

This is what you're expecting to see, right?

[outfit]

Yes that is what I want to see.
I installed the arch package wine_gecko and wine-mono.
It explains in the wiki it is for the .net stuff

How did you get that window?
arch linux has a wine-staging package. I will try this out next.

edit: should I download and learn to use the arch linux winetricks package?
Yes I should. I don't know why I am asking.

[outfit]

I installed the winetricks package and tried to install dotnet20 but I got a error about
doing this in a 64 bit environment.
So I followed the arch wiki to install the .NET framework
I used the following commands:

Code: Select all

$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/win32 winecfg
$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/win32 winetricks -q msxml3 dotnet40 corefonts

I then tried installing and running Bovada again and the same thing happened.
The computer shows the Lobby is running in the Background yet it is not on the screen.
I even exited the Window Manager and htop still showed the app as running in the background.

I then proceeded to install wine-staging from the AUR
The same thing happens.

I do notice after trying these things I now have a win32 directory with what looks like
the windows install. Am I supposed to somehow direct the Bovada install to that directory?

I am a bit lost. Everything I try I end up with the Lobby running in the Background with
no lobby window appearing.

See here for more info: http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#wineprefix

Basically yes, you have a "windows install" in ~/win32 and that's where you want to install Bovada as well.

I think you need to do a 'winetricks dotnet20' in the same wineprefix.

(wine staging isn't necessary, that just happened to be what I was using the first time I tried. Either should work though.)

[outfit]

I am sorry I am having trouble understanding this.
I need to create a WINEPREFIX and a prefix holds a virtual windows
with separate wine settings.

And this is where I want to install BovadaPoker.
I also need 'winetricks dotnet20' in the same prefix

So now I create a 32-bit wine prefix:

Code: Select all

WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/win32 winetricks dotnet20 dotnet40 corefonts

Now all these windows are coming up and it seems I am installing
the .NET framework. I think things are good so far.
Have I done things correctly so far?
This is where I am confused.
I have read different things in different places. So before I go farther I will ask.
I did the above command so far. It seemed to execute great without error.
Next how do I install BovadaPoker.exe in the win32 prefix.
I am worried if I try:

Code: Select all

$ wine BovadaPoker.exe

It will create another .wine directory and not use the prefix I created above.
Is this what I should do next:

Code: Select all

$ WINEPREFIX=~/win32 wine BovadaPoker.exe

Will the above install the app in the win32 directory?

[spoon0042]

Is this what I should do next:

Code: Select all

$ WINEPREFIX=~/win32 wine BovadaPoker.exe

Will the above install the app in the win32 directory?

Yes, the easiest / safest thing to do is to copy / move BovadaPoker.exe to ~/win32/drive_c/, cd there, then run it just like that with the WINEPREFIX set. Hopefully that will work for you.

[outfit]

No lobby window.
It installed in the win32 folder.
still no lobby window.
htop shows it running in the background

Did I create the prefix correctly?
What did your prefix command look like?

I am trying again. I am at least starting to learn wine a bit better.
I ran:

Code: Select all

$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/win32 winetricks dontnet20 corefonts

This created a prefix and installed dontnet20 and corefonts in it right?
Then

Code: Select all

$ WINEPREFIX=~/win32 winetricks dotnet40

Now this installs dotnet40 in my win32 prefix.
Then I try to install Bovada

Code: Select all

$ WINEPREFIX=~/win32 wine BovadaPoker.exe

I am doing the correct method right?
I am using wine Stagging 1.7.51
It is definitely running in the background but I just can't get the lobby window to appear.
