I have been trying to install Wine on EeePc for a while..the most popular instruction, to use the Xandros repos at wine.budgetdedicated.com don’t work. They throw an error about a Winbind dependency. So I am reading a forum post that describes this problem perfectly and I wanted to share the reply:
_this is not a wine bug
nor is the repo for xandros
but rather for ubuntu and debian.
either build wine from source a get a package for your Distribution. _
Super helpful.
If Linux is going to win converts, the user base has to realize that the vast majority of computer users don’t compile the software they use. In fact, most mainstream computers don’t ship with the tools necessary to compile from from source.
Maybe some Linux users believe this is a must have skill for anyone that is going to use Linux. If that is the case, hope you are enjoying life on the sidelines because that is where you will stay.
