[nocturne hollow]

they didn't ask for you specifically, you choose to talk here

[nocturne hollow]

Are you using Wine?

[spiral spade]

yes I use lutris

Iam trying 2 run leauge of legends

[nocturne hollow]

You may want to run pacman -D wine --asexplicit so it isn't an orphan

[spiral spade]

it says unknown option --asexplict

[nocturne hollow]

--asexplicit typo sorry

[spiral spade]

I need root rights

how do i change to root?

[lunar rampart]

[wise elk]

[lunar rampart]

you can flex after learning linux properly

[spiral spade]

ppl dont ask if I know it properly or not, they just know I use arch linux which is the hardest distro after scratch

[lunar rampart]

its not

[spiral spade]

wdym

[arctic basalt]

meanwhile Gentoo:

[spiral spade]

gentoo ez peezy

[spiral spade]

can i delete these?

[lunar rampart]

[lunar rampart]

im guessing all these lib32 packages are needed by wine

[spiral spade]

chatgpt: Sure, here's a list of some Linux distributions that are often considered challenging or advanced:

1,Gentoo

2 Arch Linux
3 Slackware
4 Linux From Scratch (LFS)
5NixOS
6 Void Linux
7 Sabayon Linux
8 Alpine Linux

[nocturne hollow]

winetricks may be useful for running LoL

[lunar rampart]

gentoo is considered harder

ray on his way to install gentoo

[spiral spade]

ok guys Iam done with arch linux

how do I install gentoo hahaha

joking

[spiral spade]

how do i remov it from the list?

[nocturne hollow]

same way as what you did it for wine

[spiral spade]

oh ok

gimme a second

[lunar rampart]

cabextract lib32-* winetricks vkd3d faudio are all required by wine here

[spiral spade]

ok I have these left: "faudio-23.07-1 gst-libav-1.22.5-1 lib32-libice-1.1.1-1 lib32-libsm-1.2.4-1 lib32-libxt-1.3.0-1 lib32-sdl2-2.28.1-1 libspiro-1:20221101-2 libuninameslist-20221022-1 mingw-w64-binutils-2.38-3 mingw-w64-crt-10.0.0-1 mingw-w64-headers-10.0.0-1
mingw-w64-winpthreads-10.0.0-1 potrace-1.16-2 spirv-tools-2022.4-1 woff2-1.0.2-4 fontforge-20230101-3 go-2:1.20.7-1 lib32-attr-2.5.1-1 lib32-faudio-23.07-1 lib32-glu-9.0.2-3 lib32-libva-2.19.0-1 lib32-libxmu-1.1.4-1 lib32-libxslt-1.1.38-1

ok lemme oprhan them aswell

[nocturne hollow]

vkd3d is the only other thing that sticks out to me

[nocturne hollow]

you don't need to mark any of the lib32 packages

[spiral spade]

oh really?

[nocturne hollow]

they're all probably just dependencies

[spiral spade]

ok I orphaned vkd3d

[spiral spade]

this is what left: faudio-23.07-1 gst-libav-1.22.5-1 lib32-libice-1.1.1-1 lib32-libsm-1.2.4-1 lib32-libxt-1.3.0-1 lib32-sdl2-2.28.1-1 libspiro-1:20221101-2 libuninameslist-20221022-1 mingw-w64-binutils-2.38-3 mingw-w64-crt-10.0.0-1 mingw-w64-headers-10.0.0-1
mingw-w64-winpthreads-10.0.0-1 potrace-1.16-2 woff2-1.0.2-4 fontforge-20230101-3 go-2:1.20.7-1 lib32-attr-2.5.1-1 lib32-faudio-23.07-1 lib32-glu-9.0.2-3 lib32-libva-2.19.0-1 lib32-libxmu-1.1.4-1 lib32-libxslt-1.1.38-1 lib32-mpg123-1.31.3-1
lib32-openal-1.23.1-1 lib32-vkd3d-1.7.1-1 mingw-w64-gcc-12.2.0-1

[nocturne hollow]

[spiral spade]

[nocturne hollow]

[lunar rampart]
