As I recently had to reinstall Vec 5.8 and require wine. And as wine 0.9.39 is out but 0.9.29 is the most recent available on the repository; I thought I would try to make a repository grade package. I have successfully built this before but I have compile errors.

Code: [Select]

configure: WARNING: Wine will be build without OpenGL or Direct3D support
configure: WARNING: because something is wrong with the OpenGL setup:
configure: WARNING: /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.a is present on your system.
This probably prevents linking to OpenGL. Try deleting the file and restarting configure.

Is deleting /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.a a wise course of action?

<edit>
I renamed /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.a to /usr/X11R6/lib/Backup_libGL.a
but now get

configure: WARNING: Wine will be build without OpenGL or Direct3D support
configure: WARNING: because something is wrong with the OpenGL setup:
configure: WARNING: No OpenGL library found on this system.

I've been having problems with an ATI card
http://www.vectorlinux.com/forum2/index.php?topic=3304.0
and I'm thinking maybe I should'nt try to build this for the repository!

[blurymind]

there is a 0.9.37 package at the repo.Not sure if has open GL enabled.

So creating a package for wine isn't as urgent as I thought.
but while were on the subject I updated my /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc file to the one posted here
http://www.vectorlinux.com/forum2/index.php?topic=1219.0
updated gslapt and still only see wine 0.9.29.

Where are you getting this from?

[easuter]

Wine 0.9.37 is in the testing repo. Add this to your slapt-getrc:

SOURCE=ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/vectorlinux/veclinux-5.8/testing/

[InTheWoods]

Thanks!

Got it.

I will try my hand at something else later.

Sure thing.
By the way, let us know if that package works correctly, so it can be moved to the extra/ repo.

I tried the test package in the repository and wanted to respond in a post requesting test results.
I can't find that post ( it was here earlier today so it did not dissappear in the clean up) so I will relate my experiences here.

Your wine does not have wineprefixcreate installed. Maybe you are running an old Wine version. Try to update it to the latest version.

I got this error trying to install IEs4Linux. The bit about libXrender.so also appeared during the wine install.
This may be unique to my system because the other wine packages yielded the same errors while the wine 0.9.39 package I compiled myself did not.

Was the package of wine that's in testing built on a box with proprietary ATI or Nvidia video drivers? Those kinds of errors can creep up when stuff is built on a box using proprietary video drivers.

FWIW,

Nope, it was built on a "clean" VL installation, no proprietary drivers installed.
I may as well build a new package with the latest release since this one isn't working properly...

[easuter]

InTheWoods, there is a new Wine build in the testing repos (0.9.39):

http://www.vectorlinux.com/forum2/index.php?topic=3375.0

I built it explicitly enabling OpenGL support, on a clean installation of VL.
Please let us know if it works for you. 

[InTheWoods]

Your new package works fine Eauster. No installation errors when installing IEs4linux.

My box does have proprietary ATI video drivers on it. From your comment I take it that I shouldn't try to build anything other than personal packages on it with my present set up?

Yeah, if its for the repo, then you should use a "vanilla" VL setup, no extras.
ATI and Nvidia use modified OpenGL libraries and headers, and the can interfere when building apps that expect to find the original ones, not modified ones.

BTW, do you get any library related errors like what nightflier was experiencing:
