How can I do a holistic WINE install?

Post by VWood »

I don't know how else to phrase this question.

I have a new laptop on which I have installed Pop! OS. I have also installed the .deb version of Wine using the Pop Shop.
This laptop is meant for gaming, but I have run into some issues getting the games to launch, as well a issues with graphics.
Some of these issues are lessened using Lutris's optional Wine versions, such as wine-ge, but not fully resolved.

Having past experience with installing Wine and running Windows programs, I know that the way to resolve all these issues is to install all optional dependencies as well as other packages and programs related to Wine. I have in the past had computers where I did what I would call a 'complete' Wine setup. The problem is that it has been so long since I have set up a new Linux system with Wine, that I cannot remember what I did or how to do it.

If you can show me a way to install all additional dependencies, packages and programs related to getting Wine to run Windows programs, I would truly appreciate it.
