How to install Wine32? (SOLVED)

Postby ScottyK » Jun 6th, '16, 17:40

Greetings!

Been trying this morning to install Wine for Mageia 5 with no success.

First I tried to do it from the command line, but it couldn't find the wine package.

Next I went to the add/remove programs, and when I searched for Wine, found four options. Installed the Wine64 and the q4wine (QT5).

It installed several programs but every time I clicked on it, the icon would "bounce", then disappear. That indicated that something was missing.

Reading on the forums here I discovered that it's preferable to install the 32 bit version instead of the 64, even if you have a 64 bit system.

I uninstalled the 64 bit stuff, and went to WineHQ looking for the 32 bit file. Got the repository installed, but when I go to the command line and run the following..

Code: Select all
sudo urpmi.update -a
sudo urpmi winehq-devel


It kicks out an error message saying it's missing a package.

Code: Select all
A requested package cannot be installed:
wine-development-common-1.9.11-1.mga5.i586 (due to unsatisfied libasound.so.2)


So how do I get that missing package?

Please show the output of
Code: Select all
urpmq --list-media active --list-url
rpm -qa|sort|grep wine


FWIW wine64 is only for windows64 native applications, usually this is not what you want.

You need to enable the 32bit repositories. (This is usually done by default.)

https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Installing_a ... rrectly.3F

and then install wine
Code: Select all
urpmi wine

Enabling the 32-bit repository did it! Thanks....

You seems to have winehq official repo for Mageia,they include different named wine packages winehq-devel or winehq-staging if you need newer wine.
