wine users - Oct 2010 - Compiling from source - where is winecfg?

Hey all,

I've just switched distro to Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) from LM9
Isadora. Some of you may be aware that the Wine Debian packages are extremely
old (the repo the main page directs me to doesn't go above 1.1.4.2), so I
compiled 1.3.4 from source, without installing.

That went fine, insofar as I tested with a previously-installed app and it ran,
but now I want to install a new app, under a new WINEPREFIX. I exported the
prefix in the terminal, but what I usually do then is run winecfg (which creates
the directory and so forth).... and I don't have it anymore. I have a
source/programs/winecfg folder which contains a winecfg.exe.so, but I have no
idea how to use that, if indeed it is useable, rather than the uncompiled source
of winecfg.

The wiki doesn't say anything about how to compile the attached tools (I
would guess that wine regedit isn't compiled either), or about how to get
along without them in the event that you don't have them in a separate
package or compiled or whatever.

.... Help? How can I compile the standard Wine tools or get along without them?
Or do I have to make install to get them?

Thanks!

That is winecfg. You should also have similar folders for regedit and all the
other tools.

With uninstalled Wine, you have to run it with the wine command:


Code:
./wine winecfg


(if you cd to the build directory first), or

Code:
/path/to/wine winecfg


from outside the build directory.
