http://winehq.org/[Wine] is an open source implementation of the Windows
|
|
API on top of X and OpenGL.
|
|
|
|
Wine emulates the Windows runtime environment by translating Windows system calls
|
|
into POSIX-compliant system calls, recreating the directory structure of Windows systems,
|
|
and providing alternative implementations of Windows system libraries,
|
|
system services through https://wiki.winehq.org/Wineserver[wineserver].
|
|
|
|
== Packages
|
|
|
|
Fedora's Wine packages are split up to allow for smaller installations.
|
|
The `wine` meta package will bring with it the most important components
|
|
of Wine.
|
|
Expert users may want to pick specific components from the list
|
|
https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/wine/[here].
|
|
|
|
The current versions of the Wine packages can also be seen on the https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/wine/wine/[Fedora packages application].

== Bugs and problems
|
|
|
|
Before reporting bugs against Wine please make sure your system is fully
|
|
up to date.
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
dnf upgrade
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
Also check if a newer version is available in the https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing[updates-testing] repository.
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing update wine
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
If you are using the proprietary graphics drivers please remove them
|
|
from your system and try again, as they are known to cause problems.
|
|
|
|
When debugging Wine, your goal is to determine if the issue is one of
|
|
_code functionality_ or _packaging in Fedora_.
|
|
|
|
Check the http://appdb.winehq.org[Wine Application Database] to see if
|
|
your application is supported, or if there are known issues that match
|
|
yours. Anything that falls into this category is a bug in upstream code
|
|
functionality.
|
|
|
|
The next step is to see if the problem persists with a clean ~/.wine
|
|
folder. To try this without losing your old configuration:
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
mv ~/.wine ~/.wine-save
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
Afterwards try to trigger the bug again. Your original wine folder can
|
|
be restored with:
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
rm -fr ~/.wine; mv ~/.wine-save ~/.wine
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
If your application still does not work but has been working in a
|
|
previous version of wine it is probably a regression. Consider filling a
|
|
bug in the upstream https://bugs.wine-staging.com/[Wine-staging bug
|
|
tracking system].
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: Do not file bugs in the Winehq.org bugzilla unless told to do so.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you really think that your bug is Fedora-related, file a bug against
|
|
the Wine component in https://bugzilla.redhat.com[Fedora's bug tracking
|
|
system].
