------- Additional Comments From andy.elvey@paradise.net.nz 2005-21-12 17:57 ------- I have good news :-) -
Thanks to Vitaliy's help, I've now been able to get both CodeBlocks and Dev-C++ running on Wine 0.9.3. I have attached screenshots to show this.
Just in case someone else comes across a similar problem, here is what I did -
1) Vitaliy mentioned that I should check where Wine was installed, and put the path into the file '/etc/ld.so.conf' then run 'ldconfing'. I did this. I then tried to run CodeBlocks again, but got similar errors to the first time. So, I took a closer look at the errors (duh-I should have done this first, before posting this bug ;-) ), The file libXxf86vm seemed to be missing, according to the error messages.
2) So, I went into Synaptic and sure enough, libXxf86vm was not installed. ***Doh*** ... ( By the way, that file is (I found out) an X video mode selection library.) The Debian version (in "unstable") has a version number of 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11.
3) I installed that using Synaptic. Then, I ran "wine codeblocks-1.0rc2.exe" , and it ran perfectly! I then ran wine devcpp-4.9.9.2_setup.exe and *it* ran perfectly as well!
So, to summarise - I have been able to both install and then run both CodeBlocks and Dev-C++ successfully.
( CodeBlocks is unable to open files, but that is a CodeBlocks bug, not a Wine one. It is a Codeblocks error-message that appears, so I can log that with them)
Anyway, I've learned heaps - especially about ld.so.conf ... - so this should stand me in good stead in the future. Very many thanks Vitaliy (and all of the other Wine devs too. )
I believe that this "bug" (which wasn't really a bug) can now be marked as "invalid" , and then closed.
