trouble installing wine

I'm having a little trouble installing wine. I'm using waldorf with liquorix kernel

here's what i get when i try to install:

root@crunchbang:/home/neil# apt-get install wine
Reading package lists... Done

i try wine1.5

here's my apt-cache policy wine

root@crunchbang:/home/neil# apt-cache policy wine
wine:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 1.5.12-1
  Version table:
     1.5.12-1 0
        500 http://liquorix.net/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages
     1.4.1-4 0
        500 http://http.debian.net/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages

does anyone know what's wrong with it ?

Re: trouble installing wine

Hi neil

" The following packages have unmet dependencies:
wine1.5 : Depends: wine1.5-i386 (= 1.5.12-1) but it is not installable "

the dependencies obviously says it , since you are on 64 bit systems and want to pull a 86-arch package .. and as i understand this .. for wine 1.5 you have to enable multiarch to get the needed package which is "wine1.5-i386" . Check if /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch with the content "foreign-architecture i386"

you would need ia32-libs

# there is Wine64,  runs in true 64bit mode. It's considerably more buggy (at a basic level) than its 32bit brother and only a few applications can use it anywhere near reliably.

http://wiki.winehq.org/Wine64

# you could also install wine 1.4 which  supports win32 and win64 .

then set wine prefix to 32-bit execution, in terminal ;

export WINEPREFIX=prefix32

export WINEARCH=win32

winecfg

This is the proper way to do this. Installing multi-arch packages is a dirty fix that's likely to cause you trouble.

Re: trouble installing wine

Debian is not Ubuntu .

http://liquorix.net/debian/pool/main/w/wine1.5/

Those packages are Ubuntu packages tried to be debianized somehow, but these are not maded very well.

Re: trouble installing wine

If you really want to test WINE 1.5 you could also backport the Ubuntu packages on Liquorix:

apt-get install debhelper dpkg-dev devscripts fakeroot build-essential pbuilder
wget http://liquorix.net/debian/pool/main/w/wine1.5/wine1.5_1.5.15-0ubuntu1.1.dsc
wget http://liquorix.net/debian/pool/main/w/wine1.5/wine1.5_1.5.15.orig.tar.bz2
wget http://liquorix.net/debian/pool/main/w/wine1.5/wine1.5_1.5.15-0ubuntu1.1.debian.tar.gz
cd wine1.5-1.5.15/debian
su -c /usr/lib/pbuilder/pbuilder-satisfydepends
debuild -b 

instead of the pbuilder command you could also use "apt-get build-dep wine".

Re: trouble installing wine

^ You can see from his apt-cache policy that his candidate for installation is 1.5.12-1 and he wants 1.4

Edit: You're right, it's 1.4 in my wally
