Program Like Wine For Mac

Posted on by

Version 4.0.1.1:

  1. Wine Mac
Ntlm_auth and gnuTLS:

WineBottler allows users to bottle Windows applications as Mac apps. Wine has always been popular among Linux users for running Windows programs, but Wine is available for Mac, too - and now, free utility WineBottler can 'bottle' Windows programs into separate application bundles that run as standalone Mac apps. Wine is an open source program for running Windows software on non-Windows operating systems. While it’s most often used on Linux, Wine can run Windows software directly on a Mac, too–without requiring a Windows license or needing Windows running in the background.

  • The size of the Wine.app is growing rapidly. Because of that I'm not to happy about adding new libs. But with the very justified enforcement of encrypted connection on all channels I've added sambas ntlm_auth and gnuTLS to support more cryptographic functions. This way browsers and Game Clients can connect properly. And (once again) you shouldn't see the dreaded:
  • Err:winediag:SECUR32_initNTLMSP ntlm_auth was not found or is outdated. Make sure that ntlm_auth >= 3.0.25 is in your path. Usually, you can find it in the winbind package of your distribution
Gatekeeper:
  • As noticed by several people, my Apple Developer ID Certificates did expired lately, so that Gatekeeper made you do the Unidentified-Developer-Dance and open WineBottler via maxOSs Security & Privacy settings. WineBottler 4.0.1.1 is now properly signed with my new certificates, but the dancing will continue with the older downloads until they are re-signed. New fun looms with Apples Notarization requirements
Other Changes:

At the moment, our main focus is to improve the overall stability of the package. This is why this build of Wine.app is still based on Wine 4.0.1. There might be some more 4.0.1 iterations before we move on to more current builds of WineHQ

  • Made included libs and binaries fully relocatable
  • Support for 64 bit prefixes in Wine.app
  • Support Darkmode on macOS Mojave in WineBottler and Wine.app
  • Fix search for existing WineBottler apps and Wine prefixes
  • Removed obsolete code and env variables for X11
From Mike Kronenberg:
WineBottler is an App to manage and wrap your windows apps into convenient OS X apps. WineBottler packages Windows-based programs like browsers, media-players, games or business appli�?�­ca�?�­tions snugly into Mac app-bundles. Select from a wide range of software for which WineBottler offers automated installations. It is as easy as hitting 'Install' - and WineBottler will leave you with a neat app on your desktop. WineBottler does not come with the programs themselves, but with scripts, that take care of down�?�­loading, configuring and installing everything into an app for you.
