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.
