Kurztipp: SuSE Linux Wine Rack unter anderen Distributionen nutzen

The "SUSE LINUX Wine Rack" CD-Rom can be used with other distributions with only little work, too.

You have to install the following programs and libraries:

  glib-2.2.3
  atk-1.4.1
  pango-1.2.6
  gtk+-2.2.4
  Python-2.3.2
  pygtk-2.0.0
  

They can be obtained from:

ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.2/
http://www.python.org/
http://www.daa.com.au/~james/software/pygtk/

Before compiling and installing those packages the following variables have to be set:

  >> export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/winerac/lib/pkgconfig
  >> export PATH=/opt/winerac/bin:$PATH
  

After that the downloaded and unpacked packages can be installed by those commands (to be executed in the specific directories where they have been unpacked):

For glib-2.2.3:

  >> ./configure --prefix=/opt/winerac && make && make install
  

and indentical for atk-1.4.1, pango-1.2.6, gtk+-2.2.4, Python-2.3.2 und pygtk-2.0.0.

Just after that the WineX-RPM package can be installed from the CD-Rom using RPM with supressing the dependecy check.

  >> rpm --install --nodeps winex3-3.2-4.i586.rpm
  

From now on the complete WineX can be started using the

  >> Point2Play
  

command.

The included CrossOver Office 2.1 will run without any changes needed.
