A binary xPack with the WineHQ executables

Package Exports

    This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@xpack-dev-tools/wine) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

    The xPack WineHQ

    A standalone cross-platform (macOS/Linux) WineHQ binary distribution, intended for reproducible builds.

    In addition to the the binary archives and the package meta data, this project also includes the build scripts.

    Overview

    This open source project is hosted on GitHub as xpack-dev-tools/wine-xpack and provides the platform specific binaries for the xPack WineHQ.

    This distribution follows the official WineHQ build system project.

    The binaries can be installed automatically as binary xPacks or manually as portable archives.

    Release schedule

    The upstream release cycle is about two weeks, with one major release every year.

    This distribution generally plans to have at least one, possibly two releases per year.

    User info

    This section is intended as a shortcut for those who plan to use the WineHQ binaries. For full details please read the xPack WineHQ pages.

    Easy install

    The easiest way to install WineHQ is using the binary xPack, available as @xpack-dev-tools/wine from the npmjs.com registry.

    Prerequisites

    A recent xpm, which is a portable Node.js command line application.

    It is recommended to update to the latest version with:

    npm install --location=global xpm@latest

    For details please follow the instructions in the xPack install page.

    Install

    With the xpm tool available, installing the latest version of the package and adding it as a dependency for a project is quite easy:

    cd my-project
xpm init # Only at first use.

xpm install @xpack-dev-tools/wine@latest

ls -l xpacks/.bin

    This command will:

    • install the latest available version, into the central xPacks store, if not already there
    • add symbolic links to the central store (or .cmd forwarders on Windows) into the local xpacks/.bin folder.

    The central xPacks store is a platform dependent folder; check the output of the xpm command for the actual folder used on your platform). This location is configurable via the environment variable XPACKS_STORE_FOLDER; for more details please check the xpm folders page.

    It is also possible to install WineHQ globally, in the user home folder:

    xpm install --global @xpack-dev-tools/wine@latest

    After install, the package should create a structure like this (macOS files; only the first two depth levels are shown):

    $ tree -L 2 /Users/ilg/Library/xPacks/\@xpack-dev-tools/wine/7.22.0-1.1/.content/

    Uninstall

    To remove the links created by xpm in the current project:

    cd my-project

xpm uninstall @xpack-dev-tools/wine

    To completely remove the package from the global store:

    xpm uninstall --global @xpack-dev-tools/wine

    Manual install

    For all platforms, the xPack WineHQ binaries are released as portable archives that can be installed in any location.

    The archives can be downloaded from the GitHub Releases page.

    For more details please read the Install page.

    Versioning

    The version strings used by the WineHQ project are two number strings like 6.17; to make it semver compatible, .0 is added as the third digit; the xPack distribution adds a four number, but since semver allows only three numbers, all additional ones can be added only as pre-release strings, separated by a dash, like 7.22.0-1. When published as a npm package, the version gets a fifth number, like 7.22.0-1.1.

    Since adherence of third party packages to semver is not guaranteed, it is recommended to use semver expressions like ^7.22.0 and ~7.22.0 with caution, and prefer exact matches, like 7.22.0-1.1.
