Check the releases page to download some of the recent Wine builds.
All other builds (including nomultilib, stable and old versions) can be downloaded from:
Extract the desired build to any directory, and then you can run applications using the path to the Wine binary. For example:
/home/username/wine-5.0-amd64/bin/wine application.exe
Some libraries (libfreetype6, libpng16-16, libopenal1, etc.) are required for these builds to work properly.
The easiest way to install almost all required libraries is to install Wine from your distribution's package repository.
GLIBC 2.27 or newer is required.
Older (4.11 and older) builds require GLIBC 2.23 or newer.
Build flags (amd64): -march=x86-64 -msse3 -mfpmath=sse -O2 -ftree-vectorize
Build flags (x86): -march=i686 -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -O2 -ftree-vectorize
Configure options: --without-curses --without-oss --without-mingw --disable-winemenubuilder --disable-win16 --disable-tests
- amd64 - for 64-bit systems, it can run both 32-bit and 64-bit applications.
- amd64-nomultilib - for 64-bit systems, it can run only 64-bit applications and it doesn't require 32-bit dependencies.
- x86 - for 32-bit systems, it can run only 32-bit applications.
Vanilla is unmodified Wine compiled from the official WineHQ sources.
Staging is Wine with Staging patchset, it contains many useful patches that are not present in a regular (vanilla) Wine, it adds new functions, fixes some bugs and improves performance in some cases.
Proton is Wine modified by Valve, it contains many useful patches (primarily for a better gaming experience). The differences from Steam's Proton are the lack of the Proton's python script and the lack of some builtin dlls (like DXVK), as well as the build environment.
TkG is Wine with Staging patchset and with many additional useful patches. Full list of patches is in wine-tkg-config.txt inside the build directory. Compiled from this sources. Main Wine-TkG repo is here.
I use create_ubuntu_chroots.sh and build_wine.sh to compile my Wine builds, so you can use these scripts to compile the same Wine builds. The first script creates two Ubuntu chroots (32-bit and 64-bit) that are identical (but versions of the libraries may differ) to my chroots that i use to compile my Wine builds, and the second script compiles Wine builds using the created chroots.
These scripts are a pretty convenient way to compile your own Wine builds if you don't trust my binaries or if you want to apply different patches.
