20 For an up-to-date list of software requirements for compiling
21 Wine and instructions how to actually do it, please see the
<ulink

"http://www.winehq.org/source/README">README
</ulink> file,
23 which is also available in the main directory of a Wine source
29 <title>Space required
</title>
31 You also need about
400 MB of available disk space for compilation.
32 The compiled libwine.so binary takes around
5 MB of disk space,
33 which can be reduced to about
1 MB by stripping ('strip wine').
34 Stripping is not recommended, however, as you can't submit
35 proper crash reports with a stripped binary.
40 <title>Common problems
</title>
42 If you get a repeatable sig11 compiling shellord.c, thunk.c
43 or other files, try compiling just that file without optimization
44 (removing the -Ox option from the GCC command in the
45 corresponding Makefile).
