Latest Wine installation

You can know the latest wine version number from the projects homepage: https://www.winehq.org/. The version number of wine installed from your system repositories can be obtained by following command: wine --version Most likely it is much less than the version released on it's homepage. That is why you should be encouraged to install the latest version from wine's repositories. Here is how to do it:

  1. sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
  2. sudo add-apt-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/'
  3. sudo wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key && sudo apt-key add Release.key
  4. sudo rm -f Release.key
  5. sudo apt update
  6. sudo apt install --install-recommends wine-staging

The latest stable wine version will be placed in following directory: /opt/wine-staging/bin/. From now you can upgrade wine as easy as running commands apt update and apt upgrade.

If you want to run the older version from some reason, then simply run: wine setup.exe But if you want to run the newest version, then specify wine's home folder and it's full path: env WINEPREFIX=~/.latest-wine32 WINEARCH=win32 /opt/wine-staging/bin/wine setup.exe
