Wine ARM Binary Port

Can wine be compiled to be ARM (From i3 to armhf)
if you can... can you give us a download link on how to
do it?

also why is winetricks in the arm repo? https://archlinuxarm.org/packages/any/winetricks

You can compile Wine for ARM, but it won't run x86 applications. https://wiki.winehq.org/ARM

also why is winetricks in the arm repo? https://archlinuxarm.org/packages/any/winetricks

Ask the Arch package maintainers. WineHQ has no control over distro repositories.

Because winetricks is a shellscript (hence why it's in the any arch category)...

You probably want to take a look at: Github: AndreRH / hangover.
The aim of this project is to create a three legged horse (only calls to native PE binaries are emulated with qemu, the rest is native code).

I will re-iterate...

winetricks is a simply a monolithic shellscript.

See: WineHQ Wiki: Winetricks.
