WINE won't uninstall from Tarhpup 64 6.0.6

[autumnleaves]

I have now loaded 32-bit comptability as per your instructions. However, Wine config does not run.

It seems every time I try to install it there is a different problem. I had it running a few days ago, but now, we're back to square one. Gremlins?

Here's what winecfg says:

root# winecfg
Wine cannot find the FreeType font library. To enable Wine to
use TrueType fonts please install a version of FreeType greater than
or equal to 2.0.5.

Thanks for your assistance.
The freetype font engine is already installed in PPM. libfreetype6_2.5.2

I had it running a few days ago, but now, we're back to square one.

So, what have you done between then and now?

Wine V2.11 is working for me on my install of Tahrpup64 6.0.6.

My install:
1.Tahrpup64 6.0.6 is a frugal install on a USB hard drive partition formatted ext3.
It is using a save folder for saves.

2.The 32bit_compatibility_libs_tahr64.sfs is located at /mnt/home on the same partition as the Tahrpup install.
The 32bit_compatibility_libs_tahr64.sfs is loaded by SFS-Load-on -the-fly.
In the console I entered:

Code: Select all

ldconfig 

Seems to be needed for Tahrpup to properly use the 32bit compatibility libs. Should only need this one time.

3. Installed the wine-2.11_v3.1.pet
Installed the wine_extras-v2.pet to get menu entries for wine.

4. Went to menu->Utility->Wine config
Ran Wine config.
Did auto setup of the drives.

It just worked for me.
I am not seeing any of the problems you report.

Puppy frugal installs on a location that is formatted with a Windows format (fat32, NTFS, etc...) can have problems caused by the filesystem fragmented or corrupted.
Windows programs chkdsk and defrag have to be used to fix it.
