How do I learn to understand the output logs?

Post by pofadda »

I am having uphills trying to install P'shop 7 under Wine on a Mac. My initial problem is that I can't understand the log output!

Is there a howto for less-than-knowledgeable users about interpreting the logs? And common solutions to errors, too?

The log is full of stuff that doesn't matter, and it's hard to learn
what does matter.
More important is how the installer or app behaves, and what version
of Wine you're using.
So, what happens when you run the installer?
