Hi all,
Been unsuccessful in trying to install wine on my 11.3 KDE4 x86_64 system, from the Emulators:Wine/openSUSE_11.3 repo.
This is what my zypper throws up:
Installing: wine-32bit-1.2-4.1 [error]
Installation of wine-32bit-1.2-4.1 failed:
(with --nodeps --force) Error: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/lib/wine/fakedlls/winealsa.drv;4c4926b6: cpio: link failed - Too many links
Retrieving package wine-1.2-4.1.x86_64 (2/3), 11.4 MiB (83.4 MiB unpacked)
Retrieving: wine-1.2-4.1.x86_64.rpm [done (160.6 KiB/s)]
Installing: wine-1.2-4.1 [error]
Installation of wine-1.2-4.1 failed:

Any idea what could be wrong / how to proceed further? Thanks.
Could be a packaging problem in the build service
Do the following and try again:
as su -
zypper clean --all
then
rpmdb --rebuilddb
Thanks for the reply, but it didn’t work. Same error messages.
i got wine to install the first time the Yast/software/software management. it worked like i have done it a thousand times and I am a big NOOOB when it comes to Linux
Can you please post the result of
zypper lr -d

Try removing the wine repo
Add this one
Index of /repositories/Education/openSUSE_11.3
Wine is in it
no need to change the default 99 priority !
Thanks, but that repo doesn’t have the 64 bit version of Wine. Anyways, I found the Emulators/openSUSE_11.3 repo and it worked great! So was it a bug in the repo? Should I report it?
This is what I got with my previous repo:
The following NEW packages are going to be installed:
wine wine-32bit
And this is what I got by adding the new one:
The following NEW packages are going to be installed:
dbus-1-32bit hal-32bit libncurses6-32bit wine wine-32bit wine-gecko
The following recommended package was automatically selected:
wine-gecko
No
If I’d looked carefully I would have realised you had the wrong repo
Thanks, but how can you find out if it’s a wrong repo?
Although I remember there was one repo which was marked as “Do not use”, but I haven’t come across it yet on the new re-designed search page…
Probably the best way to add a community repo is via Yast, like in this image

Select the community radio button and then next, and you get options

These images are from an older version mind you. But you get the picture…
