[Bug 39812] New: Mention add-architecture in the installation guide https://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39812 Bug ID: 39812 Summary: Mention add-architecture in the installation guide https://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu Product: WineHQ.org Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: www-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: kopias.peter+winhq(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- There are installation instructions on this page for ubuntu ppa setup: https://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu If someone uses a pure 64bit ubuntu, the command: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 is required before wine installation could work. If you leave this step out, apt will complain when installing wine, that wine1.7 depends on wine1.7-i386 but thats uninstallable... This page is about resolving an another problem, but the first step mentions this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/697648/how-to-fix-installation-wine-on-ubuntu... I believe the installation instructions should be clear on this step, as wine do depend on this setting, so it should be mentioned both on the gui and the cli part.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39812 --- Comment #1 from Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio(a)earthlink.net> --- Thanks for pointing that out. I've added the info to http://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu and https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=25767, which is where the current instructions are. https://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu is obsolete now that WineHQ is building packages for Ubuntu, and needs to be either removed entirely or rewritten with instructions for installing the WineHQ packages. My preference is for the former, and I think this bug illustrates nicely why putting the instructions on the wiki is preferable, but I don't make those decisions. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39812 --- Comment #2 from kopias.peter+winhq(a)gmail.com --- Thanks. I believe then you should also put a link pointing to the forum on the webpage, like "To install on ubuntu follow these instructions HERE" (I was using ansible, and the ppa works for me with the add architecture preset) -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
