Ubuntu and Multiarch?

[Thales]

Hello!
I'm wondering it if it is possible to compile with mulitarch yet?  I have Ubuntu 16.04, and have recently also installed Ubuntu 18.04.
I noticed it says you can at the very top of this page, next to "NOTICE" :   https://wiki.winehq.org/Building_Biarch_Wine_On_Ubuntu

And says that you can't at the very bottom of this one under "Compiling WoW64":https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu

I'm assuming the second one is out of date?
If I can, how do I supply the 32-bit dependencies in the 64-bit environment?  
Thanks!...John Alway

Hi,

see https://wiki.winehq.org/Building_Biarch_Wine_On_Ubuntu#Build_32-bit_Wine

The other way is to install 32-bit packages (e.g. libxslt1.1:i386) and then do some symlinking as root, this involves some trial and error...
(symlink e.g. in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ libxslt.so -> libxslt.so.1)

Short answer: Nope

The link posted from Andre works fine (ie. using lxc), and there are 
other methods using things like docker. But "native multilib in Ubuntu" 
is still not possible.. if ever.

https://github.com/bobwya/build-multilib-wine is something to look at if 
you are not interested in the lxc approach.

https://github.com/Tk-Glitch/PKGBUILDS/issues/69#issuecomment-450480948

The last one is for a more patched/unofficial build of wine.

Good luck :)

Sort of, yeah. For the most part it's perfectly possible to compile 
multiarch Wine with Ubuntu. There are just a few optional dependencies 
that haven't been made fully multiarch-compatible yet. Last I tried, the 
ones I ran into were libgstreamer (at least partially) and libxml2.
