Re: What purpose does wineinstall still serve?

28 Aug 2006

      Last we discussed, wineinstall was kept to make it easier for newbies to install Wine.  I'm not quite the newbie to Linux or Wine anymore, but I think I would still be a bit lost without it.  From what I understand, there's more than "configure/ make/ make install" required to install Wine.  Wineinstall nicely packages everything for ya! :)

Subject: What purpose does wineinstall still serve?

A while back, we talked about deleting Wine install.  What exactly does
it do these days, and why do we still have it?

Thanks,
