Wine

[sgasgar]

Hi. What repository do you add when you want to install wine?

[xenopeek]

The proven way to wine on LMDE is downloading the files manually, and then installing them. You can download from http://dev.carbon-project.org/debian/wine-unstable/, and then follow tdockery's instructions here viewtopic.php?f=190&t=76928#p447593. Alternatively, read the rest of the posts on that last page, there may be another way you want to use.

Remember : Not a real solution, just temp solution
You can install Wine 1.3 testing or Wine 1.2 stable from ubuntu ppa. I am using succesfully in LMDE.

Open sources.list file

Code: Select all

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Add below repo to sources.list file and save it.

Code: Select all

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu lucid main

Then run below codes on terminal

Code: Select all

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 5A9A06AEF9CB8DB0
gpg --export --armor 5A9A06AEF9CB8DB0 | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update

Now you can install Wine 1.2 or Wine 1.3 as below

Installation Wine 1.3 testing

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install wine1.3

Installation Wine 1.2 stable

For 32 bit

Code: Select all

wget archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/w/wine1.2-gecko/wine1.2-gecko_1.0.0-0ubuntu4_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i wine1.2-gecko*
sudo apt-get install wine1.2

For 64 bit

Code: Select all

wget archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/w/wine1.2-gecko/wine1.2-gecko_1.0.0-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i wine1.2-gecko*
sudo apt-get install wine1.2

please don't mix ubuntu and debian pkgs in LMDE!!

we already have enough problems with the ubuntu pkgs present in LMDE atm!

kelebek333: if this method works for you, good, but sooner or later you are going to face problems because of it, it's fine when is in your install (you made it, you solve it) but will you be around to help others solve theirs problems? or will you vanish and leave the users and their broken system to us to deal with?

And why developers don't add wine in repository?
Can i compile tar.gz with wine? How?

Vincent linked you above a topic where you can find several ways to install wine in LMDE

As stated in a previous post. Wine can be found in the Debian Squeeze Repo. It can be installed either by Synaptic or command line.
