This package is still relevant because multilib/wine does not have wow64 mode enabled and/or has not dropped lib32 depends.

@dreieck, https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/releases/wine-9.0#wow64

TLDR: with new WoW64 mode, you can run 32-bit Windows apps on pure 64-bit Linux system, i.e. without multilib/lib32-* dependencies installed.

Added wine-staging-wow64, the wine-wow64 package with staging patches!

@xiota: Thank you very much for the update for pcsclite!

Here is a minor issue:

wine-wow64: /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail exists in filesystem

which can be fixed with:

@daprutser The change you've requested doesn't make sense for this package.

  • This package is capable of running 32-bit binaries in wow64 mode. (Try running the 32-bit version of audacity.)
    • Emulating win98 isn't a common use case nowadays. However, the issue is fixed in commit 3fb88216.
    • For many users, the point of using this package is to drop lib32/multilib depends.
  • Building twice wastes resources.
    • At least doubles build time.
    • Storage requirements increase to 1360MB, from 490MB.

This PKGBUILD creates a version of wine that is not capable of running 32 bit code, and is therefore not able to emulate windows98.

I've taken the PKGBUILD of wine in the non-user repository, and updated it. That yields wine 9.0rc2 that is capable of emulating windows98.

That PKGBUILD is here: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56039

@tiziodcaio: official wine package has added pcsclite and lib32-pcsclite to makedepends & optdepends [1]. Could you consider adding pcsclite again as I've mentioned earlier in September?

Thanks! Please next time if you have an update use the "flag as out-of-date" to notify me about the newer release :)

tiziodcaio commented on 2023-12-16 10:58 (UTC)

Updated!

I've updated the pakage to 9.0rc2 by changing pkgver and _pkgver and regenerating the checksums. edit: removed the PKGBUILD as the update has been accepted

The package builds fine when all instances of pkgver are changed by _pkgver This is the working PKGBUILD: edit: removed the PKGBUILD as the update has been accepted
