Linux-WINE installation notes

Linux (WINE)

pyPulsar 0.1.186 (since version 0.1.158) is compatible with Linux, using Wine.

Wine?

Wine is an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X and Unix, allowing many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes, including Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris.

Compatibility issues

However, pyPulsar requires a small change to the wine standard installation:

• Using winecfg, you must override riched20.dll and riched32.dll to use the actual Windows DLLs as native. These DLLs should be copied from your Windows machine to your ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 directory.

Please report any problem you have with this installation.
