I downloaded the git package from Sun and installed it in /usr/local. The files seem to reside in /usr/local/bin, so I added that to the path, but still no luck. > >Can anyone help me with this problem? > >TIA, Colin Sharpe. Hi, Colin. I'm just another wine user (not a developer) and have never used Solaris, but I think you are missing dependency packages, whatever the configure script says. If you were a Debian user, you would first run as root: apt-get build-dep wine wine-dev That your Solaris does not find git is odd, but I am wondering about putting it in /usr/local. With Ubuntu, git goes in /home/myname/wine-git. I'm sorry I'm not of more help. Susan
