 Posted: Mon Jun 17, 2024 12:42 pm Post subject: What packages do I need in order to use wine? |
 |
|
Looked through https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Wine
Have installed virtual/wine with proton use -flag alongside app-emulation/wine-vanilla.
Yet I still can't run applications through the terminal using the "wine" command, it says it doesn't exist. What am I missing? |

Did your main Wine not get set via eselect for some reason?
Try 'eselect wine list' for the available slots, and 'eselect set n' where n is the number for the one you want as the default.
Otherwise you can use the complete names such as 'wine-vanilla' or 'wine-vanilla-9999' for example with the version specified.

Which doesn't exist, wine or the applications (or the terminal!)?

Wiki didn't mention the eselect part. Had to do a
Because eselect said /etc/eselect/wine/bin was missing from PATH, now it works.

To clarify, I was talking about wine missing. :p |

It should normally be automatically added to PATH when re-login (the eselect-wine ebuild has a postinst warning about this the first time it is emerged, eselect wine itself warns too in case it was missed), if not then maybe you are overriding PATH somewhere in your $HOME config files.
Sourcing /etc/profile is just to have it take immediate effect without needing to re-login. |
