I don't get the purpose of this post. The title and what you listed are not the same thing.

You listed a mix of apps and wine versions, all those usually assume you already have wine to satisfy dependencies, that's not how to install wine.

You install wine (staging for gaming) from your distro repositories.

[-] False@lemmy.world 7 points 8 hours ago

Install wine-staging through your package manager. Every tool you mentioned on relies on that or does something similar itself.

That said, this is an XY problem - what are you actually trying to do?

Install wine-staging through your package manager.

Install these extra programs if you need the things that they do.

Just use Bottles. Play on Linux is dead.

I suppose it depends mostly on what you intend to do.

FWIW, Wine makes you potentially vulnerable to malware that targets M$ otherwise. As such, I prefer sandboxed solutions. This used to be Bottles for me. However, currently, I don't have any need for it; I play my games through the Heroic flatpak and don't need Wine outside of that.

I usually install it orally. Usually.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
