The oldest wine version in backports is 0.9.7 so it won't help with the 20040121 version. The above attempt at compiling 0.9.12 was just to check if I was able to compile anything & was done with gcc 3.3.5 from stable. Yes,chroot is essentially having two systems sort of at the same time. I say 'sort of' because if you chroot to the other system you change over to that system entirely, so you would have to have an entire duplicate system to keep your other apps running. Even then there is issues with where is 'home' & maintaining bookmarks, address files etc on two systems. What I have been doing is just installing the wine version I want at the time...ie if I want to use turbocad i have to force install 20040121 but then I have to restore the system when I'm done or else apt won't work. I was hoping that by compiling it with libc6 2.3.xx on the system it would record it's dependencies as being libc6 2.3.xx instead of 2.2.90 which would mean I wouldn't have to force install it. I was also hoping that if I could get it to compile I could have two versions on the system at the same time.This is possible, there is some info in how to select which version to use (http://www.winehq.com/pipermail/wine-users/2001-August/003570.html) but so far I haven't figured out how to install two versions. I would also like to track down the bugs so turbocad would run on the latest versions but this is maybe more than my meagre abilities can do. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
