Had to Comment-out Makefile line

[SpawnHappyJake]

Made a WOW64 setup with 1.7.1 on Mint 15 (basically Ubuntu raring) but had to comment out the line that says "to delete the tools folder and replace it with a symlink" because the recursive option of rm (-r) was left out and thus could not delete the folder.

Code: Select all

fonts server tools:
	#$(RM) $@ && $(LN_S) /home/jake/Downloads/wine-1.7.1_64/$@ $@

It's just a few lines from the bottom of Makefile.

What I did:

Followed instructions here: http://wiki.winehq.org/BuildingBiarchWineOnUbuntu

Except I used the schroot method instead of lxc (because the ubuntu template was no where to be found, nor could I figure out how to get it.):
http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit#head ... dda597056a

Another note: simply copying /etc/apt/sources.list did not cut it for me. I copied the whole apt folder and edited the text files therein to say "saucy" instead of "raring" (because I was copying from a raring installation (Mint) to a saucy chroot - not doing so thwarts "apt-get install ubuntu-minimal", or at least if you somehow get a mix).

I edited Makefile, ran make, suffixed "fonts, tools, and server" with "_original", and made symlinks named "fonts, tools, and server" to the 64-bit build ones, and then ran make install.

So maybe replace

Code: Select all

RM              = rm -f

with

Code: Select all

RM              = rm -rf

?

Let me know if I'm missing something here.

Cheers,
Jake

P.S. Been a while.

P.P.S Kudos to whoever made it such that that only has to be edited in one spot and then $(RM) is used thereafter.
