Everyone keep saying this, but every time I try to run wineinstall, I get errors about missing scripts that I haven't been able to figure out.
./configure: line 88: conf2239.sh: No such file or directory ./configure: line 89: conf2239.sh: No such file or directory
I think this is likely because you have unpacked/installed the source as, probably, root. But are trying to run wineinstall as a user. Notice the code in configure, start line 87:
if test "${PATH_SEPARATOR+set}" != set; then
echo "#! /bin/sh" >conf$$.sh
echo "exit 0" >>conf$$.sh
chmod +x conf$$.sh
if (PATH="/nonexistent;."; conf$$.sh) >/dev/null 2>&1; then
PATH_SEPARATOR=';'
else
PATH_SEPARATOR=:
fi
rm -f conf$$.sh
fiIt is attempting to create a file conf$$.sh, where the $$ gets replaced by a number. Since you, the user, do not have write permission in the directory, that fails. And similarly elsewhere in the script.
In short, there is little you can do here except blow away the whole wine directory, and redo everything as the user, including compiling. If compiling using wineinstall, it should automatically ask you for the root password when it is time do the actual "make install", which is the only step that needs to be done as root.
