Reasons why one would need to build from source rather than relying on repositories:

1. One needs a more up to date version of Wine

2. One needs to apply a patch to the stock Wine release

This guide works for:

 * Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake), using Wine 0.9.15

 * Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger), using Wine 0.9.15


WARNING: The authors of this howto give no guarantees, your mileage may vary.

The process for building Wine from source is as follows:

== Enable the relevant source repository ==

Using synaptic, add the following custom repository.

'''Dapper:'''
{{{
deb-src http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main
}}}

'''Breezy:'''
{{{
deb-src http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt breezy main
}}}

(see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto for help)

== Install the Wine build dependencies ==

The purpose of this step is to install any dependencies necessary to the build process.

{{{
sudo apt-get build-dep wine
}}}

== Download the Wine source ==

Create a directory for the build process (wine-0.9.15), and download the source into it. You'll need at least 1.4Gig of free disk to install and build successfully.

{{{
mkdir wine-0.9.15

cd wine-0.9.15

apt-get source wine
}}}

cd to the directory containing the source code (wine-0.9.14~winehq1~ubuntu~6.06), as that's where we'll be working from.

'''Dapper:'''
{{{
cd wine-0.9.15~winehq0~ubuntu~6.06
}}}

'''Breezy:'''
{{{
cd wine-0.9.15~winehq0~ubuntu~5.10
}}}

== Apply patches, if necessary ==

Sometimes the reason you're building from source is because you need to patch the stock release. (eg to apply the WoW patch)

{{{
patch -p1 < wine-patch#1.patch

patch -p1 < wine-patch#2.patch

etc.
}}}

eg. Applying the WoW patch

Wine needs to be patched for WoW to work properly. Download the 0.9.15 patch from http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=4031 to your home folder and apply the patch to the Wine code.

{{{
patch -p1 < ~/wow.new.patch.0.9.13-1
}}}

Additional Wine fix:
open the file "dlls/opengl32/wgl.c"
find and delete the line
{{{
glDrawBuffer(GL_FRONT_LEFT)
}}}

== Install additional libraries ==

Add the recommended packages from: http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages

'''Breezy:'''
{{{
sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev libarts1-dev libartsc0-dev libaudiofile-dev libesd0-dev libaudio-dev libcapi20-dev liblcms1-dev libcupsys2-dev libsane-dev freeglut3-dev libc6-dev libexpat1-dev libfontconfig1-dev libfreetype6-dev libgcrypt11-dev libglib1.2-dev libglib2.0-dev libgnutls11-dev libgpg-error-dev libice-dev libieee1284-3-dev libjpeg62-dev libldap2-dev libltdl3-dev libmad0-dev libmng-dev libncurses5-dev libogg-dev libopencdk8-dev libpng12-dev libqt3-mt-dev libsm-dev libtasn1-2-dev libusb-dev libvorbis-dev libx11-dev libxcursor-dev libxext-dev libxft-dev libxi-dev libxml2-dev libxmu-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev libxslt1-dev libxt-dev libxv-dev render-dev unixodbc-dev x-dev zlib1g-dev xlibs-dev libxxf86dga-dev libxxf86vm-dev libjack0.80.0-dev libicu28-dev libungif4-dev libssl-dev
}}}

'''Dapper:'''
There's a script written by Dan Kegel that will do all the work:

Download and run the script
{{{
wget http://kegel.com/wine/dapper.sh
chmod +x dapper.sh
sudo ./dapper.sh
}}}

== Build Wine ==

{{{
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b
}}}

The build will take a LONG time, even with a fast machine. An hour or so would be average on a 2 GHz CPU with 1 GB of Ram, so go have a sandwich.

== Install the new Wine deb ==

The build process, once it's complete, will create a .deb in the parent directory. This is your new Wine package.

First remove the old Wine package.

{{{
sudo dpkg --purge wine

cd ..
}}}

Now, install the new Wine package.

'''Dapper:'''
{{{
sudo dpkg -i wine_0.9.15~winehq0~ubuntu~6.06-1_i386.deb
}}}

'''Breezy:'''
{{{
sudo dpkg -i wine_0.9.15~winehq0~ubuntu~5.10-1_i386.deb
}}}

== Clean up ==

Once you're satisfied that Wine is working properly, you can now clean up the files used for building Wine, as this frees up quite a bit of disk. Of course, deleting make's working files will mean that if you need to rebuild, make will have to start right from the beginning.

'''Dapper:'''
{{{
cd wine-0.9.15/wine-0.9.15~winehq0~ubuntu~6.06

make distclean
}}}

'''Breezy:'''
{{{
cd wine-0.9.15/wine-0.9.15~winehq0~ubuntu~5.10

make distclean
}}}
