[SOLVED] How to build wine on x86_64?

I've installed cross32-gcc, and now I'm trying to build it.

./configure --host=i686-unknown-linux-gnu

Result is:

checking for -lfreetype... not found
configure: error: FreeType development files not found. Fonts will not be built.
Use the --without-freetype option if you really want this.

However, lib32-freetype2 is installed, and libfreetype.so is present in /opt/lib32/usr/lib.
What's wrong?

Are you using an AUR package?

No, I've cloned a git repo from git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git, and trying to build it by hand.

IIRC wine folks discouraged building from source as it was "notoriously difficult".

Re: [SOLVED] How to build wine on x86_64?

what about using abs and get the wine build from community?

we do have it for x86_64 in our repos

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Either way you get a package (and dependencies) that are managed by pacman.

Re: [SOLVED] How to build wine on x86_64?

Looked at the PKGBUILD of wine in [community], and used options for ./configure from there. It has configured succesfully, and is currently building. Marking topic as solved.

P.S. I'm going to hack into wine code, so I need it to be built separately and I do not want to install it system-wide.

Ah, now your actions make more sense.

Good luck.
