 |
|
I've got about 20 versions of wine installed into /opt right now and it didn't take much of a change to the wine ebuilds in portage. Now I don't have to worry about reinstalling other wine versions just to play a particular game. with winehq's app database, I know exactly what versions of wine to use. combined with the WINEPREFIX variable to change the home-directory from .wine to .wine-1.#.#, this is pure love.
why hasn't wine been slotted in portage anyway? this is far more elegant. 
edit: but for some reason, I can't get any version older than 1.1.39 to compile (right down to 1.1.10) |

Nice idea, but I just use --buildpkgonly and extract the archive into a dir in my home directory, which works in a similar way. |

| I figured there were bound to be some hard-coded references to absolute paths in the wine source, so I feel more comfortable building them with --prefix=/opt |

Wine is actually specifically built without any absolute paths in it. I normally run Wine from git and never formally install it, I just run it directly out of the build directory. I have a few specific versions that I've compiled alongside the git version, so I can switch between them easily:
~/wine-git/wine foo.exe
~/wine-0.9.15/wine foo.exe
~/wine-1.1.17/wine foo.exe
...and so on.
It is a solution totally outside of portage though, but completely self contained.

I cant compile wine. I always get an error about a function not being defined. Can't remember now what it was, but it happened on a few versions of wine I got from its site....
