Once on lts 16...
Wine is changing over, so we wil be using a better/ more uptodate one wine 1.8 ....
https://www.winehq.org/download/Latest stable release:
Wine 1.8.4
Latest development release:
Wine 1.9.19
First we need to add the install sources to our source list file
*run lines one at a time!
open termianl:
since you are having so much toruble with wine, let start form scratch1
REMOVE EVERYTHING WINE RELATED!
sudo apt-get remove --purge wine\*
sudo apt-get --purge remove wine
So I did the following (make sure to copy the exact commands):
rm -r "$HOME/.wine"
rm $HOME/.config/menus/applications-merged/wine*
rm -r "$HOME/.local/share/applications/wine"
rm $HOME/.local/share/desktop-directories/wine*
rm $HOME/.local/share/icons/????_*.xpm
These commands delete files stored in hard disk that may lock uninstallation of wine. Quite possibly you will get some warnings about rm: remove write-protected regular file here. These can be enforced collectively by using the f option, i.e. rm -f and rm -rf instead of the above... but be the heck careful that you've actually typed the right paths!
After deleting the files run command:
sudo apt-get remove --purge wine
Do the following to correct any installation error.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get autoremove
-- my upgrade kept wine 1.6 and is causing problems, after the purge, everything works great....
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds
sudo apt-get update
now install the software:
Run 1 line at a time! answer yes! ...
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends wine-staging
sudo apt-get install winehq-staging
---------------------------------------
*updated version may still have port issue (port 90 in use by system..., but was successfully able to change to pot 8090 etc...)
now we are ready to install wine...
https://wiki.winehq.org/Winetrickssudo apt-get install winetricks
now open winetricks!
install the netframe work! "mono"
sudo apt-get install mono-vbnc
install gecko (this will help HFS ALOT!)
https://wiki.winehq.org/Geckosudo apt-get install wine-gecko
in winetrick click "select default wine prefix" > run wine config
configure it for windows xp....
click ok,
in wine tricks click cancle / cancle to close
Now lets run hfs...
(you may need to right mouse click run open with wine windows program loader)
