What libxml2-devel do I need to build Wine 1.6 on CentOS 6?

Post by meiosis »

I need a recent version of 32-bit Wine running on CentOS 6.3 x64. Unfortunately, the prebuilt packages seem to be too old, and so I am looking at building from source, following the instructions at http://www.winehq.org/docs/wineusr-guid ... ine-source and at http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit#head ... f2cabf246e The latter does not cover CentOS explicitly, but does address RHEL 6, which is supposed to be similar. I have installed the long list of prerequisites that is described there, but two of those, portaudio-devel and openal-devel are not available in the repository (maybe this is a CentOS vs. RHEL thing?)

But my bigger concern is the long list of warnings I get out of configure about other missing components that are not mentioned in that list. In particular, I'm stuck on libxml2-devel. I think I need XML support. Configure tells me:

Code: Select all

configure: WARNING: libxml2 32-bit development files not found (or too old), XML won't be supported.
although I have installed it:

Code: Select all

Installed:
  libxml2-devel.i686 0:2.7.6-12.el6_4.1 
Maybe it is "too old"? If so, how new does it need to be, and where can I get it?

Thanks for any guidance!
