WineHQ on Mac OS X

LaurentR2D2 · Post by **LaurentR2D2** » Mon Apr 13, 2009 4:34 pm

Hello,

I try to build last version of WineHQ on Mac following this : http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX/Building, but I can't find any configure file or any other file to generate one with autoconf. What should I do ?

I'm on Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.6 with developer tools installed and I try to build version 1.1.19

Thank you,

It seems to piggyback on the darwine build script, which launches
./configure for you.

If you want to use the typical Unix build method, you'll need to build
and install Wine's dependencies (libpng, libjpeg, libxml, etc.), then
get wine's source and build with ./configure && make depend && make.

It tries to launch it, but fails like this :

./create_darwine_distrib.sh 1.1.19 /Users/Laurent/Downloads/Darwine/wine-1.1.19
# Packaging Darwine for version 1.1.19 using Wine sources in /Users/Laurent/Downloads/Darwine/wine-1.1.19...
# Building Wine in /Users/Laurent/Downloads/Darwine/wine-1.1.19 (warning: takes a long time)...
./create_darwine_distrib.sh: line 86: cd: /Users/Laurent/Downloads/Darwine/wine-1.1.19: No such file or directory

It appears that the script is not able to download the Wine distribution file. I was able to get the file. I will look at the script later this evening to see if you have to create this directory but unbzip2ing and untaring the file first.

./create_darwine_distrib.sh: line 89: ./configure: No such file or directory

Without the directory, this file will not exist.

By the way, unless you're really trying to customize the install, it's easier to get Wine through macports than to build it yourself. Macports is a package manager that will download and build wine (you'd want to install wine-devel, not wine) and all its dependencies for you. Because they just distribute source tarballs that are compiled locally, it usually only takes them 2-3 days to get the latest version of Wine.[

+1 on that. Also, consider getting yourself the latest RC of XQuartz 2.3.3 for best results.

Why has this not been released, yet? It would allow Wine for MacOSX and CrossOver for Mac to remove the OpenGL fixes that are in place now. Have you found any problems with the rc that you know of as related to Wine and the ability to use programs that have an opengl option.?

Lots of little bugs have popped up over the course of the RCs.
Xquartz 2.3.3 rc5 is the latest, and I've had exactly zero trouble
since rc2. The Xquartz team has been looking specifically at Wine in
some of their test cases/bug reports, and most of the kinks there are
ironed out. It should be "soon," but I can personally attest to no
show-stoppers for awhile now.

You might try running the wine test suite under it to make sure
everything passes (try dual booting with a Linux install as a
baseline).

***** Error: Can't build wine

I think that I stated this earlier, but it appears that either the file
is not downloading when asked for or you did not download and stage it
yourself.

I had no problems downloading the source last night.

Mike Kronenberg provides Wine for MacOSX builds that are drag-n-drop
packages that do not leave code all over your hard drive. He has an
OpenGL fix in his build packages. However, I do wish that XQuartz 2.3.3
was out with the fixes where they belong.
