Compiler Confusion ???

[Nebula10111]

Allright, so I want to install wine. For whatever reason the repositories listed on winehq don't work. I apt-get update and apt-get install wine and it says it can't find the package wine.

So I figure eh what the heck. I download the source.

Now when I go to configure I get the following message:
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

Ok so heres the config.log:
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by Wine configure 0.9.1, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.59. Invocation command line was

$ ./configure

Allright, lemme also say the gcc seems to be working fine. I coded a hello world app, compiled it and outputed it with NO problems.

So at this point I am stumped... :confused:

Any help would be vastly appeciated :)

[oskude]

when i compile stuff, i first install this
sudo apt-get install build-essential
"...compiler cannot create executables"
comes (AFAIK) cause you dont have the program "make"... (that will also be installed with the previous command)

[RAOF]

Unfortunately, I don't think you can actually compile wine from source, for a number of reasons (some of which are wine's fault, others are Ubuntu's):

WINE must be compiled to a 32bit executable. This is no-one's fault - all of the windows programs you want to run will be 32bit, so must WINE.
The WINE source-code does not compile under gcc-4. It just errors out. It does compile under gcc-3.4, but...
I can't get gcc-3.4 to produce 32bit binaries under Ubuntu!


However, you can just grab the .deb from the wine repositories manually, and install it like that. See here. (http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=82676)

oskude: I installed build-essential and it didnt seem to remedy anything.

Yea I figured wine was 32 bit, I wasn't sure if there was a way to trick it somehow to compile it to 32 bit executable.

I'll try the install you suggested, thanks for the hlep.

[Nebula10111]

RAOF, I tryed sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture <thingy.deb> and well I got wine installed but it doesn't quite work.

I try to run an executable or winecfg and the output looks like:
err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winex11.drv": libXxf86dga.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.


dunno :confused:

[RAOF]

Do you have all the ia32-* libs installed? The library it's missing is probably in one of them (ia32-libs, ia32-libs-dev, etc)

[burnhamd]

When I do the dpkg force install I get these errors:
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste returned error exit status 2
dpkg: error processing /home/burnhamd/wine_0.9.1-winehq-3_i386.deb (--install):

Errors were encountered while processing:
/home/burnhamd/wine_0.9.1-winehq-3_i386.deb
anyone know of a solution

Try downloading the .deb again? That error sounds like it's corrupt, or incomplete, or something.

[burnhamd]

It was a currupt file thanks but now I have the problem stated above by Nebula

what in the world

[RAOF]

And have you installed all the libs I suggested?

Do you have all the ia32-* libs installed? The library it's missing is probably in one of them (ia32-libs, ia32-libs-dev, etc)
Just to be sure, you could run:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-dev ia32-libs-gtk

[burnhamd]

Yep I got all the ia32 libs including gtk dev and kde.
It must be something else.

[reub2000]

Did you try creating a 32-bit chroot?
