Question Regarding Wine


I got the latest version of Wine. I unpacked it, but in my /usr/local/src where I had the package, it created a /usr folder. It has no make files or configuration files. But it has a /bin, /doc/, /lib, /man, /share, and /include with what seems to be all the necessary files. Do I just take those files in each folder and move them to their destination folder? Like put all the files in the /bin into /usr/bin?

Did u get the binary version ???
is it for debian or slack ??

the best way to install it is by using kpackage in slack..
open the downloaded .tgz file with kpackage and select the test and not install first..

if every thing goes fine [ie. no errors reported ..] unselect the test option and install it..

The slack package [binary is below]
