What directory is the wine source tree in?

[zapper]

I need to know so I can install wine-staging 4.0, for my laptop, need wine-staging for gaming.

And no, my laptop uses a stable fork of archlinux, so I cannot use the normal repos, I have to compile from source.

You could find the Wine-staging source code on GitHub:
https://github.com/wine-staging/wine-st ... s/tag/v4.0

Okay, but that doesn't really answer my question.

I need to know how to install wine-staging. and when I went to try it, it gave me an odd error, about DESTDIR.

"DESTDIR does not point to the Wine source tree."

That error is getting kind of frustrating...

What command did you use to compile Wine?

"DESTDIR does not point to the Wine source tree."

What you downloaded was merely the wine-staging patches. You need to also download Wine's source code, and when you run patchinstall.sh, point DESTDIR to the source code directory. As to where that is, it's wherever you unpacked the source tarball to or cloned the Wine git repository to.

Can you not use makepkg and either the main Arch Linux wine-staging package build script (or one from the Arch AUR)?
Surely that's a lot easier!

Good point, but I need the wine-staging options for starcraft/starcraft 2. Couldn't enable them for some reason once I installed from git.

PS, my bad about the last time we interacted...

Okay, that does help to know. thank you. Alright I will try this again.

Hmm...

Although, I am missing these two, wine-staging dependencies:

libnetapi.so: missing
libodbc.so: missing

I got a new error btw...

error: patch failed: dlls/windowscodecs/info.c:222
error: dlls/windowscodecs/info.c: patch does not apply
ERROR: Failed to apply patch, aborting!


Weird right?

/home/user/Downloads/winestaging4.0/patches/patchinstall.sh DESTDIR=/home/user/Downloads/wine-staging-git/src/wine-git --all


Was the command I used just now. Interesting... indeed.

@zapper

Is wine-git reset to 4.0 ?

Code: Select all

cd /home/user/Downloads/wine-staging-git/src/wine-git
git clean -fd
git reset --hard wine-4.0

Otherwise patching, with the Wine Staging patchset, won't work.
The flood of new (post-freeze) Wine patches will break at least one of the Wine Staging 4.0 patchsets.

Hmm...

Didn't know that, but interestingly enough, I tried the arch method a 4th time, this time my laptop didn't go off inadvertably... so make install worked in installing it completely. But! there is one interesting thing I found out...

When I went to load battle.net via wine, I had to turn off some wine processes...

And after I did that, when I loaded battle.net, I ran into a peculiar issue regarding Starcraft:

0032:fixme:kernelbase:AppPolicyGetThreadInitializationType 0xfffffffa, 0xaffea0
002b:fixme:winhttp:get_system_proxy_autoconfig_url no support on this platform
002b:fixme:winhttp:WinHttpDetectAutoProxyConfigUrl discovery via DHCP not supported.

Also, I had some other errors which I didn't write down, but will no doubt get if I try and reload wine. Long story short, I will get back to you.

Wine-staging though works on my other laptop, but this one is older so I wonder if there is some working around to do...

[zapper]

You can mark solved it seems to work now. When I used stable a bunch of erros popped up error reporting, etc...

But I have gotten it to work now.
