Wine
Well my computer doesn't have Internet and I want wine (the windows API thing) but cant find anything... Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have windows on my system so it's not too urgent but turning it off and on alot is irritating and I'm not sure thats too good on a computer...
Edit: Using kubuntu |
Hello,
So what is the issue? Trying to get wine installed? Read here - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine Cheers, Josh |
Did you mean installing wine without an internet connexion?

what you need to do is get access to the internet from some other location, find out what wines dependencies are, and download each dependwnies, and wines .deb file. move the files onto a usb stick and transfer them onto your own computer and then install each .deb file it the appropriate order with dpkg -i

I can download it from another computer. When I searched all that came up was outdated stuff

Ya mustn't have looked to hard mate; either way, i've found it for you.
This is Ubuntus websight listing there packages. http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/wine1.2 I have found the wine package for you, built for oneiric. If you are not using that version of Ubuntu, then you will have to go up o the top right of the page and change it to show the appropriate version. The websight in my opinion is poorly designed in some respects. For each package it lists the dependencies which is a great, but it doesn't list which packages are already installed on a default install, which would be helpful to avoid downloading unneeded packages. So you will have to download each dependency and perhaps even the suggested packages, and there dependencies as well, and install them, and then finally install wine. You will have to find out for your self which of those dependencies are already installed because i do not use Ubuntu so i can't help you there. I hope this has helped. |
