A standard Wine distribution form (which you probably downloaded
|
|
according to chapter <link linkend="getting-wine">Getting Wine</link>)
|
|
includes quite a few different programs, libraries
|
|
and configuration files. All of these
|
|
must be set up properly for Wine to work well. In order to
|
|
achieve this, this chapter will guide you through the necessary steps
|
|
to get the Wine files
|
|
installed on your system. It will <emphasis>not</emphasis>
|
|
deal with how to get Wine's Windows environment
|
|
<emphasis>configured</emphasis>; that's what the next chapter
|
|
will talk about.

When installing Wine, you should make sure that it doesn't happen
|
|
to overwrite a previous Wine installation (as this would cause
|
|
an overwhelming amount of annoying and fatal conflicts);
|
|
uninstalling any previous Wine version (as explained in this chapter)
|
|
to avoid this problem is recommended.

Now that you have downloaded the Debian or RPM or whatever Wine
|
|
package file, probably via the instructions given in the
|
|
previous chapter, you may be wondering "What in the world do I
|
|
do with this thing?".
|
|
This section will hopefully be able to put an end to your
|
|
bewildered questioning, by giving detailed install instructions
|
|
for all sorts of well-known package types.

In case you haven't downloaded and automatically installed the
|
|
Wine package file via <command>apt-get</command> as described
|
|
in the <link linkend="getting-wine">Getting Wine</link>
|
|
section, you now need to use <command>dpkg</command> to
|
|
install it. Switch to the directory you downloaded the Debian
|
|
.deb package file to. Once there, type these commands,
|
|
adapting the package file name as required:

You may also want to install the

|
<systemitem>wine-doc</systemitem> package, and if you are

using Wine from the 2.3 distribution (Woody), the

|
<systemitem>wine-utils</systemitem> package as well.

Uninstalling an installed Wine Debian package can be done by

running:

</para>
|

<screen>
|
|
<prompt># </><userinput>dpkg -l|grep wine</>
|

The second column of the output (if any) of this command will
|

indicate the installed packages dealing with "wine".
|

The corresponding packages can be uninstalled by running:

<screen>

<prompt># </><userinput>dpkg -r <replaceable><package_name></></>
|

Switch to the directory you downloaded the RPM package file to.

Once there, type this one command as root, adapting the

Uninstalling an installed Wine RPM package can be done by

<para>
|
|
If you are in the directory of the Wine version that you just
|
|
compiled (e.g. by having run <command>make depend && make</command>), then you may now install this Wine version by running as <glossterm>root</glossterm>:

</para>
|
|
<screen>
|

<prompt># </><userinput>make install</>
|

</screen>
|

<para>
|
|
This will copy the Wine binary files to their final destination
|
|
in your system. You can then proceed to the <link
|
|
linkend="config-wine-main">Configuration chapter</link> to
|
|
configure the Wine environment.

</para>

If instead you want to uninstall the currently installed Wine
|
|
source code version, then change to the main directory of this
|
|
version and run as <glossterm>root</glossterm>:
