[PATCH] Allow to specify private ld-linux - wine-devel

12 Dec 2018

This patch allows to tell Wine to use a privately bundled
ld-linux.so.2 (and related glibc and other libraries) instead of
looking for them in the host system.
This greatly simplifies packaging Wine as a self-standing bundle for
Linux (e.g., AppDir, AppImage), making it possible to run Wine without
installation, even on 64-bit systems on which 32-bit compatibility
libraries are not installed.
The problem statement has been described in more detail by me in
https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2017-November/119906.html
The approach was suggested by Alexandre Julliard in
https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2017-November/119944.html
All credit for this patch goes to Hackerl, on whose behalf I am posting.
