97. Wine 1.4 out now -- very brief build instructions

UPDATE 16 May 2013: See here for Wine 1.5.30: http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2013/05/416-wine-1530-in-chroot.html

UPDATE (10th Jan 2013): See here for Wine 1.5.21 using the multiarch approach in Debian Testing/Wheezy: http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2013/01/308-compiling-wine-1521-on-debian.html

Updated list of dependencies for debian stable/squeeze: http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2012/11/compiling-wine-155-from-source-using.html


The instructions are identical to those for wine1.4 rc4 and 5: http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/debian-testing-wheezy-64-compiling-wine.html and wine 1.3.35: http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/debian-testingwheezy-64-bit-installing.html

I've tested the build on 8 March 2012.

-- START HERE --
sudo apt-get install bison flex gcc libc6-dev libfontconfig-dev libfreetype6-dev libglu-dev libgsm1-dev libice-dev libjpeg-dev libldap-dev libmpg123-dev libncurses5-dev libopenal-dev libpng-dev libsm-dev libssl-dev libusb-dev libx11-dev libxcomposite-dev libxcursor-dev libxext-dev libxi-dev libxinerama-dev libxml2-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev libxslt-dev libxt-dev libxxf86vm-dev make libcapi20-dev liblcms-dev libsane-dev libhal-dev libdbus-1-dev valgrind prelink libcups2-dev opencl-dev lib32opencl1 oss4-dev gettext lib32v4l-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32asound2-dev lib32z-dev ia32-libs-dev
mkdir ~/tmp
cd tmp/
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-1.4.tar.bz2
tar -xvf wine-1.4.tar.bz2
./configure

configure: gstreamer-0.10 base plugins 32-bit development files not found, gstreamer support disabled
configure: libgsm 32-bit development files not found, gsm 06.10 codec won't be supported.
configure: libtiff 32-bit development files not found, TIFF won't be supported.
configure: WARNING: libjpeg 32-bit development files not found, JPEG won't be supported.
configure: Finished.  Do 'make' to compile Wine.
The warnings about lack of support can safely be ignored if you don't need it. The TIFF error seems a bit random since it appears on some of my systems, but not others. I haven't figured out the responsible package yet.

make
sudo checkinstall --install=no
to build 23Mb deb package without installing it
 OR 
sudo make install
to install without building a package.


Note:
JPEG support is supposedly available if you
1. remove symlinks
sudo rm /usr/lib32/libjpeg.so.62 /usr/lib32/libjpeg.so.62.0.0
2. Then, create new ones
sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libjpeg.so.8 /usr/lib32/libjpeg.so.62
sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libjpeg.so.8 /usr/lib32/libjpeg.so.62.0.0




Edit:
I didn't know it before, but there's a slightly different, wine-specific, way of building described here http://chrisjrob.com/2012/03/08/wine-1-4-on-debian-wheezy/

To see you wine version do
winecfg
This is from a newer build - 1.5.6
