Bug ID: 39630 Summary: Issue while building wow64 for Slackware 14.1 Product: Wine Version: 1.7.55 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: studiosg@giustetti.net Distribution: ---
The issue arises while building wow64. At the very end of the build procedure, just after building xcopy, the procedure tries to add some links and command "rm -f server && ln -s ../wine/server server" fails lamenting that the "server" directory exists and it is not empty.
The build directory contains two sub-directories named "fonts" and "server" both containing a single Makefile. Both directories where not created while building previous Wine versions and are the source of the issue. To build wow64 i run: configure make depend make make install in that order. Both directories are created when running the "make depend" command. I temporarily solved the problem adding to the build script some lines of code that remove the directories, but the makefiles probably are in need of a check: they should not create the fonts and server directories in the first place.
Thanks Simone
