HOWTO build wine 32bit on CentOS 7

[gcomes]

Dear gcomes,

I rewrote your directions for Scientific Linux 7.1. I quote you heavily. Before I post to Wine's or others blogs, I would like your permission to include your writing.

I don't think you need any permission in order to make a reference to a public forum's post . But if you feel you need such permission, then I grant it to you. Anyway, once you make your post(s), you can add the link(s) here so people interested in the subject can follow the discussion.

Thank you.

I am putting the final touches on it. I will probably have it complete by Friday. I will post back the link.

For what it is worth, I've decided to open a new thread regarding the following error:

Code: Select all

Protected multilib versions: libdrm-2.4.56-2.el7.i686 != libdrm-2.4.56-20.intel20143.x86_64

I think this will effect many considering that to install wine or skype (just to name a few) you will need a solution.
See viewtopic.php?f=48&t=52750)

Your current libdrm is not a CentOS supplied one. The 64 bit libdrm on CentOS 7 is libdrm-2.4.56-2.el7.x86_64 not libdrm-2.4.56-20.intel20143.x86_64. The one you have came from someone else and either they need to supply a matching 32 bit one or you need to remove it and replace it with ours.

Thanks for that. Will look into that

Thank you gcomes for this tremendous resource! I am rather late getting to this as I have only recently started seriously looking at CentOS 7. When I followed your instructions today I found that the current version of the Wine source RPM is 1.8-1. This presented a few issues although none of them seem to have been show stoppers. If I may list them for the sake of other users...

I was able to find the location in the Wine source RPM to insert

Code: Select all

sed -i '/winegcc/s/-o /-m32 &/' tools/makedep.c

I was NOT able to find the lines which you next instructed should be removed. This did not seem to prevent a successful build.

One new item which did cause a build issue was illustrated by this error

Code: Select all

RPM build errors:
    File not found: /building/rpmbuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/wine-1.8-1.el7.centos.i386/usr/lib/wine/wpcap.dll.so

As I knew no better I simply found the reference to that dll in the source RPM and commented it out. Wine then build successfully and I was able to install wine and install a Windows program using the wine installation. I guess if I run across a Windows application which references that dll it will cause an error. Perhaps someone with more knowledge that I can find the missing .so file and provide instructions as to how to add it to the build process.

Thanks again,

Ken

In order to compile wine 1.8 you need to install libpcap-devel.i686 too.
However, this post is essentially obsolete now. To easily build wine 32-bit just install CentOS 7 32-bit and build openal-soft, nss-mdns and wine on it. Then install the 32-bit rpm on CentOS 7 64-bit

[nggit]

openal-soft.i686 is available here: https://buildlogs.centos.org/c7-epel/op ... .el7.i686/
nss-mdns.i686: @nux-dextop repo

Hi, sorry for resurrecting this thread, however; I need help.
I am fairly new to CentOS and I too am having the problem where I cannot open windows programs or installers with wine.

I attempted to biuld a 32bit flavor of wine on my CentOS 7 64bit but where I am running into a problem is the file thats attached on the first post. Essentially, the RPM rebuild. please bare in mind my experience with UNIX is limited. I was not sure where to install this file or what specific directory it needs to go in. When I execute it from my $HOME directory I get an error:

Code: Select all

[root@localhost chrpath-0.13]# [root@localhost ~]# rpmrebuild [-e] <package.src.rpm>
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'

and Im also having problems with the chrpath program. When I run the command:

Code: Select all

[root@localhost ~][root@localhost chrpath-0.13]# bash install.sh

I get the error:

install: no input file specified

What am I doing wrong and what do I need to do?
