[gentoo-amd64] Wine on amd64 - is it'32-bit'?
Hi, I'm not sure how to describe the version of Wine I build on my amd64 machine. Is it a 32-bit app using emulation libraries to talk to the 64-bit kernel? Is it a 64-bit app that attempts to run 32-bit Windows apps? It is not my intention to do anything fancy or out of the ordinary. However I have filed, over the years, a number of bug reports for Wine on older 32-bit machines. Now developers are asking me to dig out old CDs and try again with these old programs. I'm happy to do that but before I start I thought I should understand what it is I'm running these days. If I install these old programs are my bug reports of value to the Wine developers or will they toss them as invalid? So, what is it I'm running here and how could I determine this myself? I tried emerge -ep --tree wine and sort of scanning through the list but that's not very informative. Thanks in advance, Mark lightning ~ # emerge -pv wine These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

That most likely means you don't use zsh and thus gotta write something like $(which wine) instead of =wine signature.asc Description: PGP signature

For me file /usr/bin/wine worked fine: lightning ~ # file /usr/bin/wine /usr/bin/wine: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped lightning ~ # I appreciate learning a new command.
