2354	New package: crossover office	Reece Dunn	blfs-book@…	"package: crossover office

url: http://www.codeweavers.com

category: x/windows

proposed BLFS category: chapter 26 - X libraries (This is my best guess, I'll leave the actual place this goes in up to the editor assigned to this ticket.)

version: 6.0.1

download: http://media.codeweavers.com/pub/crossover/source/crossover-wine-src-6.0.1.tgz

required dependencies: xorg

description: A port of the Windows API to Linux, allowing Linux desktops to run native Windows applications. This is a commercial version of Wine. (The sources here is the Wine code used by the CrossOver Office product.)

build:
{{{
    cd freetype
    ./configure --prefix=/usr
    make
    make install

    cd ../wine
    ./configure --prefix=/opt/cxo-6.0.1
    make
    make install

    ln -sv /opt/cxo-6.0.1/bin/wineloader /usr/bin/cxo
}}}

To run a Windows application (e.g. regedit):
{{{
    cxo regedit
}}}

NOTE: other dependencies are needed for additional features (e.g. OSS or ALSA for sound; MesaGL when building with xorg 7.x for OpenGL/Direct3D support). I haven't yet identified all the non-essential dependencies.

NOTE: I have successfully built Wine and ran Windows applications using xorg 6.9.0.

NOTE: Using TWM or another Window Manager that uses the mouse over to change the focus behaviour will cause issues with Wine focusing.
