PLEASE NOTE: THIS GUIDE IS UPDATED REGULARLY AS PER FEEDBACK FROM MY YOUTUBE VIDEOS. IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE RELEVANT.
How to get out of Wine Dependency hell (aka I just installed Lutris to run wine games and *forgot* to install everything wine related):
Antergos/Manjaro/Arch derivatives (enable multilib in pacman.conf):
sudo pacman -Sy
sudo pacman -S wine-staging
sudo pacman -S giflib lib32-giflib libpng lib32-libpng libldap lib32-libldap gnutls lib32-gnutls mpg123 lib32-mpg123 openal lib32-openal v4l-utils lib32-v4l-utils libpulse lib32-libpulse alsa-plugins lib32-alsa-plugins alsa-lib lib32-alsa-lib libjpeg-turbo lib32-libjpeg-turbo libxcomposite lib32-libxcomposite libxinerama lib32-libxinerama ncurses lib32-ncurses opencl-icd-loader lib32-opencl-icd-loader libxslt lib32-libxslt libva lib32-libva gtk3 lib32-gtk3 gst-plugins-base-libs lib32-gst-plugins-base-libs vulkan-icd-loader lib32-vulkan-icd-loader cups samba dosbox
Solus:
sudo eopkg install wine wine-devel wine-32bit-devel
Ubuntu:
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
sudo apt-key add Release.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-staging
Mint:
wget -nc https://repos.wine-staging.com/wine/Release.key
sudo apt-key add Release.key
# For Linux Mint 17.x:
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ trusty main'
# For Linux Mint 18.x:
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ xenial main'
# For Linux Mint 19.x:
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
Then:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-staging
If apt-get complains about missing dependencies, install them, then repeat the last two steps (update and install).
Debian:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
sudo apt-key add Release.key
# For Debian Wheezy add the following line:
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ wheezy main
# For Debian Jessie this one:
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ jessie main
# For Debian Stretch this one:
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ stretch main
# For Debian Buster this one:
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ buster main
# And for Debian Sid this one:
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ sid main
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install winehq-staging
For Solus the package names have changed, and therefore the new command is:
sudo eopkg it wine wine-devel wine-32bit-devel
thank you
this work in this moment? opengl script dont work :C i wanna play this game in linux please.
It’s not release file for Ubuntu 18.04.
Hey gloriouseggroll,
if there is any one man in the world who deserves to be called glorious, it must be you!!
Thank you VERY MUCH indeed, you saved my day, my weekend, my life. I had big trouble installing some German tax software, ELSTER, with Linux, due to problems with WINE, PlayOnLinux, Windtricks, Updates therein, and the like. It was horrible, searching for the mistake for hours and hours, all in vain.
Somehow I must have carried out the right updates so, hopefully, as I finally stumbled the information that some library packages in Linux might be missing – lib and lib and winehqstaging.
I do not even know in what connection I really came to your site for 🙂 – but I did the steps you proposed for Ubuntu, and reinstalled ELSTER – and now, only now it seems to be working!
Thank you so much for your advice- what a relief!
I FUCKING LOVE YOU! i have no idea what it was i was missing but this seemed to have fixed my issue
for debian which was used to sign packages has changed now use
sudo dpkg –add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
sudo apt-key add Release.key
then add
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ wheezy main
Hello, can you amend this for instructions on Gentoo Linux? Thank you.
