Ha! Wine work for regular user if I do "/usr/bin/wine" instead of "wine". Some mystery script get executed somewhere when I type "wine" that look for wine in /usr/local/bin.
I have other thread where I try to figure out how to remove old wine that was installed with ./tools/wineinstall script: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...l-wine-812828/
I try "make uninstall" and it seem like it remove everything but when I try reinstall with ./tools/wineinstall it say it detect previous installation and I never figure out what it detect. I wonder if that what messing me up now? I think some silly script still laying around that trick my system into thinking it have wine when it does not. I think it still executing that script even though I have slackbuild wine and it not in same directory anymore.
darksaurian@inferno:~$ type wine
wine is hashed (/usr/local/bin/wine)
darksaurian@inferno:~$
What hash mean? That mean shell see I execute wine all the time and instead of looking for it, it already store it's location, right? And then I do "make uninstall" and it not tell hashfile, right? So wine really was uninstalled! I think? Just messed up hash.
Ha! 'exec bash' fix it. Thx all. What that do, clear hash file or something?
I wonder if I start over with new system and do ./tools/wineinstall script and then do 'make uninstall' and then 'exec bash' if ./tools/wineinstall stop detecting previous wine installation?
If I remember correctly, there is an option you can pass to the configure step to remove the fontforge requirement Maybe --without-fontconfig or --without-freetype... BUT I think when I did this, fonts were weird and wonky in dialog boxes.
