Wine

[Ken Cunningham]

You probably won't want to build it, though.

Dean uses MacPorts to build wine, and then makes the binaries available here:

https://github.com/Gcenx/macOS_Wine_builds/releases/

Homebrew just downloads and installs the premade binaries that are made by Dean's MacPorts overlay.

These are considered the official Wine builds for MacOS.

Perhaps one day Dean will be able to integrate his updates into MacPorts main repo, but Ryan has been building and maintaining Wine on MacPorts for many years and has a parallel update in the works.

Unfortunately Ryan is also extremely busy with all his other MacPorts efforts, and has not been able to finish his update to wine for some years now, so may have to pass the gavel to Dean in the end.

Best,

ken
