This way you correctly instructed Wine to create a 32-bit prefix, and indeed it gets set up that way. However it is not usable because you don't have the needed 32-bit packages installed. The solution is given in the commands output: # dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-get update && # apt-get install wine32 Note that if you have wine64 and wine32 installed and don't specify WINEARCH (I consider this the default), the created prefix will be able to run both 32- and 64-bit applications (its arch is "win64", the setup is called shared WoW64). It should also work if you first create the prefix and then only after that install wine32. > Looks like "wine32" is meant: > > # rm -rf w32 > # WINEPREFIX=$PWD/w32 WINEARCH=wine32 wine wineboot > it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it. > multiarch needs to be enabled first. as root, please > execute "dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-get update && > apt-get install wine32" > wine: created the configuration directory '.../w32' Unknown WINEARCH gets silently ignored by Wine, so you created a 64-bit prefix here. Now install wine32 and it should just work. So everything is correct, you just need to do what you see in the output. I still asked upstream to explicitly check the WINEARCH setting. Greets jre
