How to build 32 bit wine using org.freedesktop.Sdk.Compat.i386?

#1 
flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Platform.Compat.i386/x86_64/20.08
flatpak-builder --arch=i386 build-dir --force-clean wine.yml

giving error:

bwrap: execvp ./configure: No such file or directory

Whereas 64bit sdk: org.freedesktop.Sdk find ./configure and starts the building process, 32 bit (as above can’t find configure); How to build 32 bit wine using compat.i386 sdk?

Here’s the yml

I would not pass --arch=i386. There is no 20.08 runtime for i386 and you are using the compat i386 layer on top of x86_64 (it should be enough)

Also you want to build i386 but pass --enable-win64 to the configure? (maybe I misunderstand what it does)

org.freedesktop.Platform.Compat.i386 is not a runtime - only an extension for the runtime. You have to base your application on org.freedesktop.Platform/x86_64/20.08 and add the extensions via sdk-extensions (to make them available while building) & add-extensions (runtime).

You can take a look at flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam as an example. You’ll need at least these extensions:

sdk-extensions:

  • org.freedesktop.Sdk.Compat.i386
  • org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.toolchain-i386

add-extensions:

  • org.freedesktop.Platform.Compat.i386
  • org.freedesktop.Platform.GL32

Also take a look at modules-32bit.yml on how to configure your modules.

If you’re just trying to build Wine32 (and not WoW64) you can look at the Fightcade Flatpak manifest, https://github.com/flathub/com.fightcade.Fightcade/blob/master/com.fightcade.Fightcade.yml

Thank you so much, as i386 sdk and platform of 1.6 and 18.08 is going obsolete, I just want to save my paid Games and Applications in flatpaks, so that I don’t have to install and configure wine and apps everytime I want to use them. Flatpaked wine is just like wine bottles and it will be cross distribution.

I hope WoW64 would also be possible. Thanks Again!

I think I’ve built a wow64 wine with flatpak-builder, please test https://github.com/fastrizwaan/flatpak-wine/tree/main/wine-x86_64

#7

Could you please reshare the file, it’s been removed from Github. I was planning to use it to try WoW64 this weekend in my Flatpak.

Edit: Nevermind, I see it’s just been moved; https://github.com/fastrizwaan/flatpak-wine/blob/7ccd4bc71622361fd87af7b4c1275132c7e8fa4d/org.winehq.flatpak-wine/org.winehq.flatpak-wine.yml

here’s a link to a commit rather than tip of tree for anyone who comes across this 404
