At the Linux Summit, a bunch of us decided it'd be a good idea to try out lsbcc on more real-world packages, so I tried wine again tonight. My previous try was described here: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2006-August/050554.html
This time I used Feisty Fawn's lsb build env packages: sudo apt-get install lsb-build-cc3 This installed lsbcc (well, lsbcc3, anyway; looks like that's a debianism that isn't mentioned in the official lsb doc).
And instead of making configure aware of lsbcc3, I created the file ~/bin/gcc containing
#!/bin/sh exec lsbcc3 "$@"
(Yes, the first line is needed, make fails without it.) and did chmod +x ~/bin/gcc and added ~/bin early in my PATH. Then I did configure etc.
Finally, I still had to use a few of the same magic incantations explained in my last message on the subject when building:
LSBCC_SHAREDLIBS=wine export LSBCC_SHAREDLIBS make LDFLAGS=-ldl CFLAGS="-g -O2 "-DRTLD_DEFAULT=((void *)0)" -DMAP_FILE=0"
The first real problem I ran into was that freetype wasn't found. This turned out to be http://bugs.linuxbase.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1577 and I just ignored it for now.
The second real problem I ran into was /home/dank/wine-git/server/ptrace.c:103: undefined reference to `ptrace' Last mention I've seen of ptrace in lsb was http://lists.debian.org/lsb-spec/2001/02/msg00038.html and I guess it never made it in. I've filed this as http://bugs.linuxbase.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1664 - Dan

Freetype isn't part of the LSB is it? It should be linked statically.

A quick fix could be getting ptrace, as well as any other functions that are missing, using dlload/dlsym of libc.
What's the long term plan for an LSB build of wine? Would we drop the dozen or so different distro packages and have 1 official binary, like samba is supposedly planning to do?

While I don't know what Wine's plans for this are, I'm 100% positive that the Samba team is not planning to do any LSB releases. Samba needs various low level features that LSB doesn't provide, and you don't really want a binary without those features.
However, for the Wine side of things, the tradeoff is different. Samba has a (non-security) release once every couple of months. Wine is churning out releases every other week. Also, at Wine we're creating our binaries ourselves. I guess the real question is if a LSB-wine could be kept at a reasonable size with a reasonable set of features in order to replace the different distro packages.
