Hello,

my Linux distribution is still stuck at Wine 6.0.x, and I need to install Wine 8 for a game I'd like to play. If this recent version of Wine to be expected soon for downloading and installing with the help of Playonlinux, or will I have to try installing it manually? WineHQ offers some installation instructions, but I did not manage to install the desired version following those instructions.

There is a version of Wine 8, only you will have to manually install the instance in .PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/

This is the link to the version.
https://www.playonlinux.com/wine/binaries/phoenicis/upstream-linux-x86/PlayOnLinux-wine-8.0-rc2-upstream-linux-x86.tar.gz

I hope the help has been helpful to you.

 

 

The wine 8 versions have already been released.

Greetings.

Yes, the 32 bit version are available for download within POL. The 64 bit versions are still being processed.

 

Meanwhile I managed to install Wine 8.0.2 from the WineHQ, adding their repository to my system. (32 bit and 64 bit version.)

Now Wine 8.0.2 is installed on my system, but POL does not reocgnize the 64 bit version as "system", when I create or change a virtual drive. The 32 bit version is choosable as "system" for a virtual drive, but when I need to create or modifiy a 64 bit virtual drive, I can only choose between those Wine version that have been downloaded within POL.

 

Is there any paramater in POL that I need to set so it recognizes the newly installed system version?

You can try with:

WINEVERSION="installing"

Edit: 2024-04-17

#!/usr/bin/env PlayOnLinux-Bash
[ "$PLAYONLINUX" = "" ] && exit 0
source "$PLAYONLINUX/lib/sources"

TITLE="Test"
PREFIX="test"
WINEVERSION="system"
OSVERSION="win7"

POL_SetupWindow_Init

#....

POL_Wine_SelectPrefix "$PREFIX"
POL_Wine_PrefixCreate "$WINEVERSION"
Set_OS "$OSVERSION"

#...

exit 0

Are there any parameters in POL that I should configure to ensure it recognizes the newly installed system version?

To manually set the system version you have to select the option:
- Use another version of wine.
Then select the one named System.
It will also create a new prefix for it.

 

To create in a POL script you must use the variable.


WINEVERSION="system"

And when configuring the version of wine, call the variable:


POL_Wine_PrefixCreate "$WINEVERSION"

If you don't feel like calling the variable, you can do it in a single line as follows:


POL_Wine_PrefixCreate "system"

 


Now what you need is to work directly on the version of wine installed on the computer. You can only work directly from the system itself. To call an installer directly you can use the following command:

wine <<Program name.exe>>

If you need to install a library you will need to install winetrick.
