            Hi All,

            This is kind of critical.  Any help would be greatly
            appreciated.

            Okay, I give up.  Downloaded and installed Wine from EPEL.

            SL7 wine-1.7.22-1.el7.x86_64

            It refuses to run 32 bit apps.  Tells me I can not run 32
            bit apps
            under a 64 bit program.  WINEPREFIX and WINEARCH do not help nor
            does any of the FAQ over on wine-hq:
            http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#32___bit_wineprefix
            <http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#32_bit_wineprefix>

            WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=/path/to/wineprefix winecfg
            Crashes with the same 32 bit/64 bit error.

            Any one know how to get 32 bit apps to run under wine?

            Many thanks,
            -T



        Hi All,

        Michael Cronenworth of EPEL answered me on this one:

                In order to run 32-bit Windows PE binaries you need a
                32-bit Wine binary.   RHEL 7 and EPEL 7 does not provide
                a 32-bit development environment to compile 32-bit Wine.
                This is a "feature" of RHEL 7.

                You cannot run 32-bit apps unless you compile 32-bit
                Wine yourself.

        Dang!

        -T


    This is bad.  I may have to scrub SL7 off that computer and
    install FC20.  Anyone know if we will get 32 wine support
    from anywhere else?


Not without someone doing a lot of legwork to get 32 bit libs compiled
which no one seems to be wanting to do. [Lots of requests to have it..
no one willing to do it.]

Hi Steven,

This guy seems to have done it, but I am not all that trusting
of such unknown third party spins.  Also, who knows if he
will update his stuff.

I am seriously thinking of ripping out SL 7 from that machine.
