My system is Debian Sarge. I edited /etc/apt/sources.list to add a line:
deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/binary
as describe on the download page. When I next tried to run apt-get
update it failed with the message "Malformed line 10 in source list"
For the record, all I want to do is run a pretty basic Windows program,
Mike Lawrence's Counting a Bridge, which I believe was written for
Win32. I installed Wine, Wine-utils and Winesetuptk from the Debian
sources and ran winesetup. It exited with the message
"CBase::AutoConf::GetWinInstalls: unable to grep /c/msdos.sys: Child
process exited abnormally" I have a working copy of Windows 2000
installed in the c: partition of the master harddrive and can mount the
partition as /c from Debian Sarge. ls /c lists msdos.sys as an
executable file.
Question: Should I try to correct the problem in the Debian setup or
would the problem disappear if I installed the latest version of Wine?
If the former, how do I fix the setup? If the latter, how must I modify
/etc/apt/sources.list so I can download the latest version of Wine.
