I'm new to linux community and I want to install wine from cvs. I looked
here http://www.winehq.com/site/cvs but I understand it... i mean I
entered in the console:
export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/home/wine
cvs login
everything fine then i entered:
cvs -z 3 checkout wine
...
U wine/tools/wrc/writeres.c
That means it created the directory structure wine/tools/wrc/ (if the
directory did not already exist) and added the file writeres.c to it.
Ok so what do I do now? Compile it somehow? How? Where is the source
code?
Yes, you need to compile it if you want to run Wine from CVS. The CVS
version won't really gain you much, but it doesn't hurt to give it a
try. And as complex Linux source code goes, Wine is relatively easy to
compile and install from source. Do these steps (from the directory you
were in when you did the CVS checkout):
cd wine
./configure
make depend
make
That last step will take quite awhile the first time, possibly half an
hour or so.
Be aware that you will need to have several packages installed first. Of
course, you will have needed to install all the compiler tools. You will
also need the development packages installed for things like alsa and
fontforge. The best thing to do is to go through the config.log file
after running the ./configure command, and see what it says are missing.
