On the other hand, a older slackware version is available from winehq
Wine is not an emulator nor win. And I need to install it for my EccoPro PIM (which runs better on GNU/Linuix than it does on Windoze) in Salix 14.1 Xfce (otherwise, a very nice distro).
How do I do that?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Wine not found in gslapt or sorcerer
Assuming that you have a 32 bit machine you could try Alien Bob package. Just download it from here:
http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbu ... /pkg/14.1/
and the cd to the directory you downloaded it to and do this:
He has a 64 bit package but you will need to install multilib
http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbu ... /pkg/14.1/
and the cd to the directory you downloaded it to and do this:
Code: Select all
$ sudo spkg -i wine-1.7.24-i486-1alien.txz
He has a 64 bit package but you will need to install multilib

Re: Wine not found in gslapt or sorcerer
OK, I'll try that. But since the CPU is 64 bits, I'll install multilib first.laprjns wrote:Assuming that you have a 32 bit machine you could try Alien Bob package. Just download it from here:

I also downloaded and extracted the winhq slackware package, but am not sure what I need to run to compile it.
Thanks for the tip.
Re: Wine not found in gslapt or sorcerer
I downloaded the 64 bit package to the desktop and installed using the code you provided, but seaching on multilib in sourcerer and gslapt produces no results andlaprjns wrote:Assuming that you have a 32 bit machine you could try Alien Bob package. Just download it from here:

Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
Re: Wine not found in gslapt or sorcerer
There is a script by djemos to install multilib. Search the forum and you should find it.Be warend it takes ages to run and will install a huge amount of stuff, so make sure you have plenty of room first.

That must be the post that mimosa referred to.laprjns wrote: Try this:

It's a little complicated but I'll try to get to it later today.
I have found Salix XFCE to be a very nice distro and I hope I can get Wine installed because I need access to the data and functionality of the EccoPro PIM (which is an old Windoze app and as I mentioned, runs much better on GNU/Linux than on M$ systems).
