Maybe, i can get things wrong sometimes ;-).
However, joking appart, firstly you will need to know where libwine.so is
located, ways to do that are;
locate libwine.so
find / - name libwine.so (ouch takes a lot of resources).
Take a piek in the archive from which you extrachted wine itself.
Now say that it is located in /usr/local/lib, you will need an entry in
/etc/ld.so.conf like;
/usr/local/lib
After editing that file do;
'ldconfig' which should update the cache, enableing wine to see where to
look for the lib.
Now if that fails i suggest you read the documentation for wine, ( i do not
use wine) so i dont know much about HOWTO do it, there should be some
mention of libs, and possable an explanation about starting wine with a
script, if that is true then you have the possablity of adding
LD_PRELOAD to tell wine where the lib(s) are located, a typical entry would
look like;
export LD_PRELOAD="/usr/local/lib/libwine.so"
If that is of no help, then someone else will need to correct my
misinturpretation of your problem.
