Wine on usb install?
I have an 8G usb stick with Liveslak-14.2 created with the iso2usb.sh script. Partitions are:
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 1049kB 2097kB 1049kB BIOS Boot Partition bios_grub 2 2097kB 107MB 105MB fat32 EFI System Partition boot 3 107MB 8004MB 7897MB ext4 Slackware Linux legacy_boot I want to add wine, and a bible encyclopedia program to give me access to the latter on the move. The software is a pretty straightforward install; wine compiles and installs in the 'live' homedir (--prefix=/home/live/) but immediately demands gecko. Winetricks falls over in this scenario (No internet for one thing) and wine won't work with the gecko .msi installer, "wrong exec format." What's the workaround for that? Am I headed for the rocks or should this go together? |
Have you got gecko in /usr/share/wine/gecko/wine_gecko-2.40-x86.msi and is it the correct version and architecture?
I'd check on the winehq wiki for the exact version that is required, copy it in /usr/share/wine/gecko/ and create a new prefix. It should be installed automatically unless there's version mismatch, I figure it should be 2.40 for stable and 2.47 for dev release. |
I had used gecko-2.24 (32bit, I presume) which dates from 2014 but was on disk here. I also had compiled wine with --enable-win64.
I'll go at this again, getting it online first with wpa_supplicant & co. and recompiling wine without --enable-win64 |
Did you try to install my wine package for 64bit Slackware? It contains both the 64bit and 32bit wine binaries, and also includes the correct version of the Gecko MSI installers so that that does not have to be downloaded.
Note the dependency: OpenAl (both the 64bit and a converted 32bit "compat32" package). |
I did surely, version 1.9.15. It installs, then when I run wine, it says:
"/usr/bin/wine: no such file or directory." Wine is in /usr/bin, all 9704 bytes of it. |

No, I installed enough multilib (gcc-*-compat32.txz)to silence complaints
Code:
ldd /usr/bin/wine* |grep found Code:
bash-4.3$ ls /mnt/dvd/persistence/var/log/packages/ Code:
live@darkstar:~$ which wine |
Quote:
"bash: /usr/bin/wine: No such file or directory" happens because it can't find the 32 bit dynamic linker, /lib/ld-2.23.so, which is in the multilib glibc-solibs, which you haven't installed. In fact, you pretty much need all of multilib if you want a hassle free life. Just do it. |
Well I'm not sorted yet. I installed the compat32 stuff (all except xsane, because I have no scanner). Then we got
Code:
root@darkstar:/usr/lib# cd /mnt/tmp/2015 Code:
root@darkstar:/usr/lib# ls libIDL* Code:
root@darkstar:/mnt/tmp/2015# wine Setup.exe Code:
root@darkstar:/mnt/tmp/2015# ln -s /usr/lib/libIDL-2.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libIDL-2.so |
Well, the library files libdl.so and libiDL.so are not the same, obviously.
So, libdl is part of glibc and my guess is that you do not have the multilib version of glibc packages installed. Edit: idlemoor (55020) basically said the same thing before you posted your reply. |
Well, I got the libdl stuff from my 14.1 install, and glibc-solibs fi586 from heanet, the local ftp mirror, but still no dice
Code:
root@darkstar:/mnt/tmp/2015# wine Setup.exe |

What do you have installed? Code:
ls -l /var/log/packages/ | grep -E '(multilib|compat)' |

Have you read Alien Bob's Multilib Doc: Adding Multilib Capability to Slackware on x86_64 Architecture ? His HOWTO has never lead me astray since I started running Slackware64 13.37 + MultiLib. Something you WILL want to consider for your 8-GB USB Stick is disk space. You will eventually hit the wall ( disk-space wise ) with an 8-GB USB Stick as you install more Packages. Anyhow, to keep the overhead to a minimum on the USB Sticks, this is what I do ... First, I download the Package Trees for Slackware, MultiLib and SBo onto a HDD Partition on my 'real machine'. Then I boot the USB and mount the 'real HDD Partition' after the USB Stick has been booted. I install the Packages I need on the USB 'the good old Slackware way' ( installpkg or upgradepkg or removepkg ). That way, I can install the Packages I need on the USB without using up additional space for the repositories or for the Package Management DataBases. I am not an expert by any means but this scheme is working for me on three different USB Drives ( 8GB, 32GB and 64GB )... HTH. -- kjh |
Being specific, I installed the entire multilib without xsane-compat32, and /lib/libdl.* from 14.1. Not a few of them either
Code:
ls /var/log/packages/{gcc*,glibc*,lib*} Code:
root@darkstar:/mnt/dvd/var/log/packages# wine Setup.exe |
Once again: you have not installed multilib glibc. This is the single most important, most fundamental, least optional part of multilib!
