thanks for the reply,
I thought mingw was installed as it says on http://pkg.kali.org/pkg/mingw-w64 but checking with the following command realised it wasn't
Code:
root@kali:~# dpkg -l mingw
dpkg-query: no packages found matching mingw
tried to install the package but din't work
Code:
root@kali:~# apt-get install -y mingw
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package mingw
root@kali:~# apt-get install -y mingw-w64
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package mingw-w64
and can't run the mingw exe file with wine as I get this error
Code:
root@kali:~/Downloads# wine mingw-get-setup.exe
wine: Bad EXE format for Z:\root\Downloads\mingw-get-setup.exe.
root@kali:~/Downloads# wine64 mingw-get-setup.exe
fixme:service:scmdatabase_autostart_services Auto-start service L"MountMgr" failed to start: 2
wine: Bad EXE format for Z:\root\Downloads\mingw-get-setup.exe.
the command wine setup.xx-exe doesnt work either
any advice here?
