Thanks in turn for the laugh! :)

No, it's a bug in my last release.  I'll be releasing again today or tomorrow. 
So after that, just change into your /the/location/of/wineBuildDir/ and run
this to update the sources instead of git clone and checkout:

git fetch
git reset --hard origin/hybrid-sync

You would normally do "git pull", but I'm committing in a "non-fast-forward"
fashion, so you have to do a hard reset.


But for help with general building and the like, please visit #wine on
irc.freenode.net.  But here's a few helpers anyway.

That sounds right, I'm on a different Linux distro and I haven't played with
Ubuntu or Debian in a while

You only need the 32-bit version and it's probably simplest to just build it
w/o 
--enable-win64 or --with-wine64, but if you want to build the 32- and 64-bit
versions, here's a quickie.

1. First configure the 64-bit in one directory with --enable-win64,
2. build it,
3. In a separate directory, configure and build the 32-bit using --with-wine64=
to tell it where you built the 64-bit version.

For example:

mkdir build/32 build/64
cd build/64
CFLAGS="-O2" ../../configure --enable-win64 (any other arguments)
make -j5
cd ../32
CFLAGS="-m32 -O2" ../../configure --with-wine64=../64 (any other arguments)
make -j5

This is known as an out-of-tree build and most projects prefer that you use
that instead of building in-tree where the source code and output are mixed in
the same directories.

> 8.  make
It's faster if you add -j<n> where n is the number of CPU cores (times two if
you have hyperthreading) plus one.  e.g., make -j5

WINEPREFIX is the directory under drive_c.  You'll also see things like
system.reg, user.reg, dosdevices, etc. in that directory.
