wineinstall is a tool that runs the commands you need for you. If you wish to have a little bit more of control, just type thus in the wine folder: Code: ./configure This will check if your system has what it takes to build wine. At the end it may let you know that there are some extra pieces of software you'll want to install, like openal. If you want to install them, install the -dev versions of the packages via synaptic. Then rerun Code: ./configure If everything went well start to compile wine by typing Code: make wait until it finishes. When it's done type: Code: sudo make install to install the compiled binaries in your system. If later you'll want to build a new wine version, or install the version from the repos, type in the wine folder: Code: sudo make uninstall That's pretty much all there is to do.
