The easy way is to download a package suitable for your architecture and install using 'installpkg'. http://taper.alienbase.nl/mirrors/pe...ckbuilds/wine/

Morning Carl!

If you are running slackware 14.1 64-bit...
First you'll need to install multilib, in order to install wine...

Here's link to instructions.

(copy the complete link)

Download wine and build the install package (or, see links below)
http://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.1/system/wine/


Pre-built packages by AlienBOB (Note! some dependencies might be missing, such as webcore-fonts and fontforge. Both can be found at slackbuilds.org)
If 64-bit slackware

If 32-bit slackware

Am not sure if I am missing something here...

Feel free to report back if any issues (or if this solved the problem)...

Small correction: fontforge is not a direct dependency of wine, see this post by Alien BOB.

Thanks for your reply's.i am going to install wine.
