我已经安装了，Wine并且对当前版本感到非常满意，但是winetricks由于各种错误消息而让我失望了几次。

如何更新winetricks以在Ubuntu上获取最新版本？

的版本winetricks附带的股票Ubuntu的安装往往是很老了，甚至可用的版本，从一个更现代的PPA可以有点滞后。独立于您的主要安装，winetricks手动进行更新是一个好主意，也是一个非常安全的主意，这可以通过几个简单的步骤完成：Wine

1.检查最新版本，删除旧版本：

首先检查一下这个方便的单缸上游产品的最新版本：

curl --silent --show-error \
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks --stderr - \
| grep ^WINETRICKS_VERSION | cut -d '=' -f 2

然后，如果这胜过您自己的安装版本（以查看您的版本从命令行运行winetricks --version），请删除当前安装的版本：

sudo apt-get remove winetricks

2.安装最新版本：

然后下载并安装最新版本：

wget  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks
chmod +x winetricks 
sudo mv -v winetricks /usr/local/bin

如在我自己的系统上演示的，可以测试最新版本：

andrew@ilium~$ winetricks --version
20190912-next - sha256sum: 4b994d981a7b6abe1f0edb6a57d8c15b1f060cf08de8819f9147e31ababf35a6
andrew@ilium~$ 

3.添加一些附加功能并检查较新的语法：

确保您有一些需要运行的“助手”应用程序也是一个好主意winetricks，尽管其中大多数应已随您的Wine副本一起安装：

sudo apt-get install cabextract p7zip unrar unzip wget zenity

然后检查正确的用法（可能与您的旧版本有所不同）：

andrew@illium~$ winetricks -h

andrew@illium~$ 

4.安全地逆转这些步骤：

如果出于某种原因希望返回到较早的存储库版本，则可以简单地运行以下命令：

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/winetricks
sudo apt-get install winetricks

一切都会保持原样。

更新的2019年答案

Disco和Eoan中提供的winetricks版本可以自我更新[1]。
如果碰巧使用的是19.04或更高版本，请运行：

sudo apt install winetricks
sudo winetricks --self-update

如果您使用的是旧版Ubuntu，则可以在以下位置获取.deb软件包：https :
