Title: (Solved)Trying to install Wine from Liquorix repo
Post by: tuxic on 2014/11/11, 08:53:53
Here I go again. My favorite Windows program just don't run on the Wine version from the Debian repo. I've used it with newer versions of Wine in Ubuntu not so long ago. I'm trying to install the latest version of Wine from the Liquorix repo:


Code: [Select]
tuxic@sid-box:~$ apt-cache policy wine
wine:
  Installed: 1:1.7.28-1
  Candidate: 1:1.7.28-1
  Version table:
 *** 1:1.7.28-1 0
        500 http://liquorix.net/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1.6.2-16 0
        500 http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages


So to be clear I did the regular wine installation with the following:


Code: [Select]
# apt-get install wine winetricks libwine-openal:i386 libc6-i686:i386 libgpm2:i386 uuid-runtime:i386 libgsm1:i386 libv4l-0:i386 fonts-liberation libwine-gl:i386 libwine-alsa:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386

Then tried to install my WTLIB program, unsuccesful.


After that tried to "update" activating the Liquorix repo and upgrade wine and this is the result:


Code: [Select]
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 wine1.7 : Depends: wine1.7-amd64 (= 1:1.7.28-1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).


Then:

# apt-get -f install

If someone have installed the wine version from the Liquorix repo,  please shed some light!

Should have just installed from source, better yet, you can go to the Liquorix forums and ask about his packages and see if
#767626 (http://mailto:767626@bugs.debian.org) and #767011  (http://mailto:767011@bugs.debian.org)were fixed, also, you should have removed/purged  wine before installing this one.

Really can't comment on the

"I've used it with newer versions of Wine in Ubuntu not so long ago."


because ubuntu is not binary compatible with debian and .debs are made different unless debianized.


Mixing repos can be a dangerous thing unless you know what you are doing, and then, can be a tedious job on fixing.

Hi tuxic,
a proposal which, although it does not solve your problem, but is useful as a workaround. I would set up a virtual machine (KVM or VBox) with Windows and run your application there. This works easily determined and straightforward to set up.

Thanks bluelupo! I have a dual boot with Windoze on the other side. But I do all my work in the Sid side. I'm trying to just use the Debian side and leave the other OS.  :-\

I'm in communication with the fellows from the Liquorix "Vineyard" so they can guide me in the process.  I'll post the results here as "Experimental".

You can do

Code: [Select]
apt-get purge wine* ; dpkg --purge wine*
and might want to have a read here

Here I go again. My favorite Windows program just don't run on the Wine version from the Debian repo ...

From bitter experience/lots of wasted time, I can tell you there are some Windows applications that will not run on ANY wine version.  I can name two or three genealogy programs, for example.  Some years ago, I spent a full 3 days, in communications with the wine tech support folks, trying to get my needed programs to run correctly.  Since then, I have been a VMware user.  AFAIK, most of the other siduction users who need to run a VM use KVM or VirtualBox.  If you cannot find good evidence (in the online wine database) that all your needed Windows programs are known to run correctly under wine, your time might be better spent learning to set up a VM.

Thanks dibl! The program that I want to install is classified as "Platinum" from Wine: Watchtower Library. In other past instalation from Ubuntu and SolydK, it installed and funcioned as a breeze. I don't know what's happening with wine from the plain vanilla repo...

damentz from Liquorix answered:

Make sure you purge all versions of wine on your system before you install the wine in the liquorix repositories. The version in debian's repository and the version in the Liquorix are completely incompatible with each other.
Then:
Code: [Select]
#apt-get purge '^(lib)?wine.*'and finishing with:

Code: [Select]
# apt-get install wine winetricks libwine-openal:i386 libc6-i686:i386 libgpm2:i386 uuid-runtime:i386 libgsm1:i386 libv4l-0:i386 fonts-liberation libwine-gl:i386 libwine-alsa:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 wine-bin:i386Voila! Now Watchtower Library is running with wine from the Liquorix repo!

Because nobody told me about wine-development package. Just about:
Code: [Select]
# apt-get install wine winetricks libwine-openal:i386 libc6-i686:i386 libgpm2:i386 uuid-runtime:i386 libgsm1:i386 libv4l-0:i386 fonts-liberation libwine-gl:i386 libwine-alsa:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 wine-bin:i386I'm not a linux-expert as you are. Just a user trying to learn from linux. I posted the tread a couple of days ago. So after I found a viable solution, you come with this answer... C'mon man!!!
The program is running like a breeze and I know that Liquorix kernels and repo have a very good standing in the debian-sid community.

Update: just trying to go "by the book" uninstalled the Liquorix wine and installed the Debian "wine-development"... same result as wine. WTLIB didn't run. So back to Liquorix Wine and now WTLIB is back again!

Maybe you can try Playonlinux in there you can install different Wine versions independent of the Wine installed from Debian.
