Unable to install Wine in Mandriva 2k6


i'm running Mandriva 2006 and i can't get Wine to install. i downlaoded to .bz2 file and followed their instructions to install, but it keeps saying i don't have a suitable C complier. i installed the development pack for Mandriva along with their C++ compiler. do i need a different one or something?

The C compiler you need is gcc. To download and install it: 'urpmi gcc'.

However, I recommend you try something else. First of all, go to Easy URPMI and make sure you tick all the options - then copy and paste the commands into a teminal window (like Konsole) and install the updates. Once that's done, go back to the terminal and type 'urpmi wine' or 'urpmi winex'. That should do the trick, and will be much easier.

Cheers,

Mandriva 2006 should already come with WINE binaries... It does here...

Or grab the RPM from one of the repositories...
