Problem with dependencies installing Wine 4 in Ubuntu 18.04.

[ciltocruz]

Voy a intentar estos pasos esta tarde. Te lo diré ...




Intentaré también instalar playonlinux


¡Gracias!

This first option has not worked for me in any way. For any version of Wine that I want to install I just get to the same package whose version i: 386 uninstalls 715 packages of the system ...

Yes you can install both 64 and 32 bit versions.

[ciltocruz]

I installed office 32 bits and, in spite of appearing installed in playonlinux, it does not work. It does not open the files or the program.


Then I will try to install the 64 bit exe. But I'm afraid it will not work either.

[ciltocruz]

I did not manage to install a 64-bit "setup.exe" (Office 2013 64 bits) manually.

MS Office 2013 is quite a heavy load for wine and POL. But here is a blog that may help you get there. The 64 bit version will not work with wine.

I faced the same problem of endless dependencies installing winehq-* on my Ubuntu 18.04.2 (upgraded from ubuntu 16.04). After lots of googling and trying out what worked for me at the end was to build wine locally, which was way faster than I thought.

So here how I done it: (Token from [winehq official wiki][1])

1. clone:

git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git ~/wine-dirs/wine-source

2. build 64-bit version:

cd ~/wine-dirs/wine-build/
../wine-source/configure --enable-win64
make
DO NOT INSTALL (32-bit version should be installed first)

3. build 32-bit verions:

cd ~/wine-dirs/wine32-build/
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/pkgconfig ../wine-source/configure --with-wine64=../wine64-build
make

PKG_CONFIG_PATH should point to the location of the 32 bit pkgconfig files, probably /usr/lib or /usr/lib32.

**DEPENDECIES**:

**libfaudio**

1. depends on SDL2-2.0.9 (follow [instruction][2])
2. clone https://github.com/FNA-XNA/FAudio
3. build

cd build_faudio/
cmake ../FAudio-master/
make -j 4

**i386 version of some libs**

1. sudo apt-get install libx11-dev libx11-dev:i386 [from][3]
2. sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev:i386 libfreetype6-dev [from][4]

I think that if you want to install msoffice that virtual box may be your best bet.
This page maybe of help.

I also having trouble install wine as OP.
Did this step, but in my case, after clone the git files, I can't find wine-build directory under wine-dirs. I got wine-dirs/wine-source
I got stuck after make in step 2 and can't figure out what this lines mean

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/pkgconfig ../wine-source/configure --with-wine64=../wine64-build

since I dont have the wine32-build dirs, where should I run above commands.

thanks

The wine-build (or any build directory mentioned) is simply the build directory, you can create it anywhere you like.

You can find more info over PKG_CONFIG_PATH in https://wiki.winehq.org/Building_Wine
