What is wine-compholio?
=======================
The **Wine "Compholio" Edition** is a special patched version of Wine that includes both patches
written by our team directly and specific patches by third party developers that we consider
good enough for inclusion. This can be seen as a testing version in preparation for patches
to be submitted to upstream Wine - don't be surprised if you encounter additional bugs, which
are not present in regular wine, and always report such issues to us (via github), so we can
improve our fixes even further. Thanks!
Included bugfixes and improvements
----------------------------------
Wine-compholio contains fixes for the following Wine bugs:

How to install wine-compholio
=============================
Ready-to-use packages for wine-compholio are available for a variety of different
Linux distributions directly for download. Just follow the instructions below to
install it (and all required dependencies). After the installation, please take a
look at the next section for instructions how to use it in order to run your desired
application.
**Important:** If you already have pipelight installed on your system, there is a
good chance that you already have wine-compholio. Take a look at the next section
on how to find out if this is the case.
If your distribution is not listed below, feel free to add a feature request - if the
demand is high enough we might consider packaging it for additional distributions.

```
![alt text](http://repos.fds-team.de/misc/images/opensuse.png) OpenSUSE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
All the following steps have to be executed as root user. As a first step you have
to add the repository - this step depends on the openSUSE version you're using.
| openSUSE version | Path component |
| ------------------- | ----------------------- |
| openSUSE 12.2 | `/openSUSE_12.2/` |
| openSUSE 12.3 | `/openSUSE_12.3/` |
| openSUSE 13.1 | `/openSUSE_13.1/` |
| openSUSE Factory | `/openSUSE_Factory/` |
| openSUSE Tumbleweed | `/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/` |
The following commandline is an example for openSUSE 13.1, for a different version
just replace the path component according to the table above:
```bash
zypper ar --refresh http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/DarkPlayer:/Pipelight/openSUSE_13.1/home:DarkPlayer:Pipelight.repo
```
Afterwards just run the following commands to install it:
```bash
zypper ref
zypper install wine-compholio
```
![alt text](http://repos.fds-team.de/misc/images/fedora.png) Fedora
-------------------------------------------------------------------
**Warning:** In contrary to other distributions, its not possible to have both a
regular wine version and wine-compholio installed at the same time - using the
instructions below will replace your regular version. Moreover it will be installed
to `/usr/bin/wine` in contrary to `/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wine`.
As a first step you have to add the repository - this step depends on the Fedora
version you're using.
| Fedora version | Patch component |
| --------------- | --------------- |
| Fedora 18 | `/Fedora_18/` |
| Fedora 19 | `/Fedora_19/` |
| Fedora 20 | `/Fedora_20/` |
The following commandline is an example for Fedora 19, for a different version just
replace the path component according to the table above:
```bash
sudo wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/DarkPlayer:/Pipelight/Fedora_19/home:DarkPlayer:Pipelight.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/pipelight.repo
```
Afterwards run the following command to install the package:
```bash
sudo yum install wine-compholio
```
Please note that you might run into trouble if the official Fedora package (without
compholio patches) is newer than the one from the repository above, so if something
doesn't work, always make sure that you have installed our version. To do that just
run:
```bash
/usr/bin/wine --patches
```
When you're using wine-compholio this will show to a list of all patches included, for
an unpatched version this command will fail.
![alt text](http://repos.fds-team.de/misc/images/mageia.png) Mageia 4
---------------------------------------------------------------------
As a first step please add the key for our repository
```bash
wget http://repos.fds-team.de/Release.key
rpm --import Release.keyy
```
If you're using a 32-bit version of Mageia just add the repository for 32-bit packages:
```bash
sudo urpmi.addmedia "Compholio 32-bit" http://cdn.fds-team.de/stable/mageia/4/i586/
```
For a 64-bit version of Mageia you'll need both the 32-bit and the 64-bit repository:
```bash
sudo urpmi.addmedia "Compholio 32-bit" http://cdn.fds-team.de/stable/mageia/4/i586/
sudo urpmi.addmedia "Compholio 64-bit" http://cdn.fds-team.de/stable/mageia/4/x86_64/
```
Afterwards run the following commands to install the package:
```bash
sudo urpmi.update -a
sudo urpmi wine-compholio
```
Using wine-compholio
====================
Since we don't want to duplicate a lot of information here, we recommend to take a
look at the [official Wine FAQ](http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ) for general information
about how to use Wine. The following part will mainly concentrate on the differences
between wine and wine-compholio.
Running wine-compholio
----------------------
**Using multiple Wine versions:*** Unless you specify a special `WINEPREFIX` environment
variable, wine-compholio will use the same wineprefix `~/.wine` (in your home directory)
like regular wine. This allows you to use your already installed programs directly,
without much effort or reinstalling them. Often you have both regular wine and wine-compholio
installed at the same time, which is *absolutely no problem* - by typing in either `wine`
(=regular wine) or `/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wine` you can decide, which wine version you
want to run. You can switch between versions as often as you like - just make sure that all
Windows programs have terminated before starting them with a different version.
To run wine-compholio always type `/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wine`, for example:
```bash
cd ~/.wine/drive_c/<your path>/
/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wine game.exe
```
You also have to add `/opt/wine-compholio/bin/` when running other wine related programs,
here are some additional example:
```bash
# Initialize the wine prefix
/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wineboot
# Open the wine configuration
/opt/wine-compholio/bin/winecfg
# Run winepath to convert paths
/opt/wine-compholio/bin/winepath --unix 'c:\Windows'
# Kill the running wineserver instance
/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wineserver -k
...
```
If you're an experienced user, and always want to use wine-compholio, you can also add
`/opt/wine-compholio/bin` to your bash profile. We will not go into detail here, because
such a setup has the big disadvantage, that it hides which version you're using - which
is very important for getting support or reporting bugs.
Submitting bugs
---------------
**Warning: Do not submit bug reports at bugs.winehq.org when using this version!**
If you encounter any issues, the first thing you should do is to try it with regular wine.
We're only a very small developer team, and although we would like to do that, we probably
cannot really solve all your Wine bugs. When it turns out that the official Wine version also
doesn't work, you can file a bugreport at the official [Wine bugtracker](http://bugs.winehq.org/).
Feel free to mention that you also tested with wine-compholio, but all bugreport related
information (logs, crashdumps, ...) should concentrate only on upstream wine.
If it turns out, that it works with upstream wine, but not with wine-compholio, then it
might be a regression caused by our patches. We would like you to report this issue to us,
so we can fix it in future versions. You can also report issues, when testing with upstream
Wine is impossible or it crashes with a different error (for example much earlier).
When submitting a application related bug here on github, please make sure to include at least
the following information. Generally its always a good idea to provide as much information as
possible, since this will significantly increase chances to provide support and to fix it.
1. **Which application triggers the bug**
* Application name
* Version number (if available)
* Download URL (if available)
2. **WINEPREFIX settings**
* *Recommended:* Test it in a new wine prefix, and report if this works
* Did you install any overrides? (for examples by using `winetricks`)
* Did you change any settings by running `winecfg`?
3. **Information about your wine-compholio version**
* *Recommended:* Test with regular wine, and report if this works
* Version number (`/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wine --version`)
* Patches in your build (`/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wine --patches`)
* Installed optional libraries (`/opt/wine-compholio/bin/wine --check-libs`)
Compiling wine-compholio
========================
**Warning:** Please note that starting with wine-compholio 1.7.23 it is deprecated
to manually apply patches without using the Makefile. To avoid typical pitfalls for
package maintainers (like trying to use the patch commandline utility for binary patches
or not updating the patchlist) it is highly recommended to use the Makefile in order
to apply all patches. This ensures that the the correct patch utility is used, that
the list of patches is updated appropriately, and so on. Please note that it is still
possible to exclude patches if desired, take a look at the end of this document for
more details.
Instructions
------------
The following instructions (based on the
[Gentoo Wiki](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Netflix/Pipelight#Compiling_manually))
will give a short overview how to compile wine-compholio, but of course not explain
all details. Make sure to install all required Wine dependencies before proceeding.
As the first step please grab the latest Wine source:
```bash
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-{version}.tar.bz2
wget https://github.com/compholio/wine-compholio-daily/archive/v{version}.tar.gz
```
Extract the archives:
```bash
tar xvjf wine-1*.tar.bz2
cd wine-1*
tar xvzf ../v{version}.tar.gz --strip-components 1
```
And apply the patches:
```bash
make -C ./patches DESTDIR=$(pwd) install
```
Afterwards run configure (you can also specify a prefix if you don't want to install
wine-compholio system-wide):
```bash
./configure --with-xattr
```
Before you continue you should make sure that `./configure` doesn't show any warnings
(look at the end of the output). If there are any warnings, this most likely means
that you're missing some important header files. Install them and repeat the `./configure`
step until all problems are fixed.
Afterwards compile it (and grab a cup of coffee):
```bash
make
```
And install it (you only need sudo for a system-wide installation):
```bash
sudo make install
```
Excluding patches
-----------------
It is also possible to apply only a subset of the patches, for example if you're
compiling for a distribution where PulseAudio is not installed, or if you just don't
like a specific patchset. Please note that some patchsets depend on each other, and
requesting an impossible situation might result in a failure to apply all patches.
Lets assume you want to exclude the patchset in directory `DIRNAME`, then just invoke the
Makefile like this:
```bash
make -C ./patches DESTDIR=$(pwd) install -W DIRNAME.ok
```
Using the same method its also possible to exclude multiple patchsets. If you want to
exclude a very large number of patches, it is easier to do specify a list of patches
which should be included instead. To apply for example only the patchsets in directory
`DIRNAME1` and `DIRNAME2`, you can use:
```bash
make -C ./patches DESTDIR=$(pwd) PATCHLIST="DIRNAME1.ok DIRNAME2.ok" install
```
