Wine makes it possible to run Windows programs alongside any Unix-like operating system, particularly Linux. Wine is an implementation of the Windows Application Programming Interface (API) library, acting as a bridge between the Windows program and Linux.
When a Windows program tries to perform a function, Wine will translate that program’s instruction and make it suitable for Linux. The Wine development release 1.7.35 is now available.
New features in this release:
– Beginnings of support for OpenGL core contexts.
– Initial support for glyph placement in DirectWrite.
– Some more WBEM objects.
– Various bug fixes.
By using the below steps, we can install Wine 1.7.35 in Ubuntu/Debian/Linux Mint
First, we need to update the local repository using the following commands. Then we can install Wine.
====
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -y wine1.7
====
Once the installation gets completed, we can run the Windows-based application.
