Hi, Wine is missing xmessage dependency. When running /usr/bin/winelauncher, the following message is displayed : Warning: The Wine launcher is unable to find the xmessage program, which it needs to properly notify you of Wine execution status or problems. This launcher script relies heavily on finding this tool, and without it, it will behave very poorly. We strongly recommend that you use your distribution's software methods to locate xmessage, or alternatively use your favourite internet search engine to find out how you are supposed to install xmessage on your system. Emerging x11-apps/xmessage, and it works fine. $ equery uses wine [ Searching for packages matching wine... ] [ Colour Code : set unset ] [ Legend : Left column (U) - USE flags from make.conf ] [ : Right column (I) - USE flags packages was installed with ] [ Found these USE variables for app-emulation/wine-0.9.15 ] U I + + X : Adds support for X11 + + alsa : Adds support for media-libs/alsa-lib (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) + + arts : Adds support for aRts: the KDE sound daemon + + cups : Add support for CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) - - debug : Tells configure and the makefiles to build for debugging.
