With wine, we can have a layer of compatibility that allows us to run Windows software on Linux. Wine 7 is the latest stable branch of a project that has been with us for many years.
WINE EMULATOR DEBIAN HOW TO
Today, you will learn how to install Wine 7 on Debian 11. This is a short post that may be useful to both sysadmin and many desktop users. wine folder in you home directory.Hello, friends.
WINE EMULATOR DEBIAN DOWNLOAD
You can also choose to let WINE download it for you, but the downloaded file will be used only for current user, and also it will be removed when you remove. This way, you have WINE Gecko available for all users. After downloading the app, move or copy it to /usr/share/wine/gecko/ (create the folder if not exist root previlage needed). If you need running an internet based application like a browser in WINE, you need to have a package called “Wine Gecko”. If you encounter dependencies error while installing WINE, try run this command in Terminal: sudo apt-get install -f Run this command in Terminal: sudo dpkg -i wine-unstable*
Run this command in Terminal: sudo dpkg -i wine-bin-unstable* Run this command in Terminal: sudo dpkg -i libwine*
Now continue with next installation process: For example, if you put the packages in Donwloads folder in your home directory, run this command in Terminal: cd /home//Downloads FYI, from my exprerience, a WINE library need a package called oss-compat_2 to be installed first.įirst, in Terminal, change current working directory to the location where you put the downloaded wine packages (in step 1). You can skip this step though, you can fix it later (after WINE installation) by using Synaptic or by running sudo apt-get install -f. Do this if you don’t want to see an error message saying something like broken dependencies. Pre-installation: Install required dependencies.Download only the packages suitable for your machine. The page provides *.deb packages for amd64 and i386 architecture.
I have this latest WINE installed in my Debian machine and have been using it without any problem, but, be aware though, WINE packages that we will install here is beta version (unstable), use it at your own risk. Here I will show you how to install lates WINE in Debian. The page does not provide a repository that we can simply add it to the Debian source list, but we have to download all necessary packages of latest WINE and install them all manually. The latest version of WINE brings many features and improvements compared with previous one, supports more Windows apps/games, and also bug fixes.Īccording to WINE official page, we can install latest WINE on Debian system via this website. WINE version in the repo is 1.0, while latest stable version of WINE is 1.4, let alone the beta version which currently has reached WINE 1.5. Unfortunately, at least in Debian system official repository (including Debian Squeeze (stable), Wheezy (testing), or LMDE which is based on Debian Testing, WINE package is a bit obsolate. Most Linux distro (including Debian/ Mint) have WINE in its official repository, all we have to do is running a single-line command like sudo apt-get install wine to install it. Fear not, the Linux community has a very useful application called WINE, short of Wine Is Not an Emulator, a software that can run a Windows application on Linux machine. Unfortunately, we live in a world where most people are still using proprietary software in Windows OS, so that many applications are still only available for the Microsoft’s OS. We love Linux and free/open source softwares.
