Compiling wine on AMD64

[James Trotter]

Hi!

I've installed Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger) on an amd64 machine. I was going
to install wine, and noticed that it's only packaged for i386, but I noticed
the comments on the bottom of this page http://winehq.org/site/download-deb,
which explain how to build wine from source.

Is there a question or is this is comment?

I'm interested myself. I tried building from source on my Gentoo AMD64
machine. I failed. However Gentoo portage has stuff fixed up so that
it builds. I'm also running Crossover Office on this machine so I know
it can be done but I couldn't get it to work myself.

Good luck,
Mark

I'm terribly sorry, I was composing this mail and sent it without meaning to
do so... I'm going to write it finished, and I'll send a meaningful mail...
Sorry for the spam
