uTorrent+Wine issues on Ubuntu

[bammers]

When can we expect to see a package come out for this? I changed from fedora to debian thinking that this might fix my problem, but so far its still shagged...

in about two years? changing an entire operating system just for Wine is pretty outrageous; you'll have to compile wine yourself, there are guides everywhere.

Just a heads up for people who`ve been experiencing this error on linux. It`s been patched and it`s available in wine`s latest source which can be obtained by using git. Peers can now stay connected rather than be dropped when the uploads speed goes over 1MB/s.

The bug had been present since 0.9.40 version of wine. (May/June 2007)

sudo apt-get install git-core 

git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git wine

After that compile. (64 bit users see http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit for instructions)

Great info and thanks for this. Can anyone help me compile this? I'm still learning...

Im using Debian 4.0 (etch)

Just FYI....

I'm running debian etch and I got all the information I needed to compile and install wine 1.1.6 out of this thread.... it referes to 1.1.5 but you get the jist....

I just hacked away at it for a bit and got mine up and running... seedbox is chugging along at uploading at 11meg a sec now... so happy days...

Just thought i'd let the curious know

How exactly do you compile after doing that git-core thing ?

./configure is not working here.

I am on Debian 4.0 (Etch).

Have change directory to git-core folder

cd ~/git-core

(or whatever is the name of the folder)

Btw, I have tried both Debian and Ubuntu and I have never needed that patch. You should try updating the OS and wine first:

If you are on Ubuntu Hardy (8.04):
Add some repositories: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
Set up the key repository for wine:

wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -

Add a repository for wine:

sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

Update your APT and system:

sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade -y
sudo aptitude full-upgrade

Update wine:

sudo aptitude install wine

Here are the .deb packages for wine if you need the latest version:

If you are on Debian Etch (4.0):
Add some repositories:

vi /etc/apt/sources.list

these are mine:

deb ftp://mir1.ovh.net/debian/ etch main
deb-src ftp://mir1.ovh.net/debian/ etch main

deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free

deb ftp://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ etch main
deb-src ftp://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ etch main
deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main contrib non-free

Update APT and sytem:

apt-get install aptitude
aptitude update && aptitude upgrade -y

I installed the deb package of wine for Debian:

wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/debian/etch/wine_0.9.44~winehq0~debian~4.0-1_i386.deb
dpkg -i wine_0.9.44~winehq0~debian~4.0-1_i386.deb

Also, on both OS you should lift the number of files a user can handle:

sudo nano /etc/security/limits.conf

and add this line to your file:

yourusernamehere hard nofile 8192

I got an error while trying to compile Wine 1.1.6

checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

last line in config.log:
configure: exit 77

Any ideas?
