I am trying to build a shared WoW64 setup on Ubuntu 10.04 from source. I have already installed wine-1.4 using the APT package handling utility in Ubuntu, and I have downloaded and uncompressed the tarball for wine-1.5.5 into /usr/local. If I understand correctly, I must remove wine-1.4 before installing wine-1.5.5 from source, which presumably includes removing (or moving) my current $HOME/.wine directory. My version of gcc is 4.4.3, the lastest stable package for Ubuntu 10.04. The page http://wiki.winehq.org/Wine64 seems to say that I will be unable to compile wine-1.5.5 with this version of gcc? I would rather not install a currently unsupported version of gcc. Running ./configure --help from /usr/local/wine-1.5.5, it says that the --with-wine64=DIR flag will "use the 64-bit Wine in DIR for a Wow64 build". I don't understand what directory DIR is supposed to be. Perhaps $HOME/.wine or something? So, will the commands Code: rm -r $HOME/.wine mkdir $HOME/.wine cd /usr/local/wine-1.5.5 ./configure --with-wine64=$HOME/.wine make sudo make install build the shared WoW64 setup that I want?

They are not the same thing. DIR in that command should be the directory where you have installed 64 bit Wine.
