Centos 7 (64bit) & wine 32 bit

Problem, as described here:

wine64 from Epel does not start win32 applications

It is recommended to use "playonlinux" distribution there. However, I prefer to compile my own wine distribution, see "Building a shared WoW64 setup" on

Install prerequisites:

yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
yum install libjpeg-turbo-devel libtiff-devel

install 32 bit of development tools ( not sure about specific subset, thus use an extensive approach):

yum install gcc.i686
yum install `rpm -qa |grep devel |sed -e 's/x86_64$/i686/'`

Download fresh wine:

cd /usr/src
wget  http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-1.7.38.tar.bz2
tar xjf wine-1.7.38.tar.bz2

Configure and compile: 64-bit first, 32 afterwards

mkdir wine32 wine64

cd wine64
../wine-1.7.38/configure --enable-win64
make -j 4

cd ../wine32/
../wine-1.7.38/configure --with-wine64=../wine64
make -j 4

install in reverse order: 32-bit first

make install
cd ../wine64
make install

The resulting installation goes to  /usr/local/.  It can be uninstalled using

cd /usr/src/wine32
make uninstall
cd /usr/src/wine64
make uninstall

(not tested).
