Create a control file in the DEBIAN folder that specifies Depends: wine . Run dpkg-deb --build mypackage to generate your .deb file.

: While primarily for Linux binaries, tools like ELF2deb can sometimes help package existing files into the .deb structure. Manual Packaging :

If you want a .deb file for easier distribution or installation on Debian-based systems (like Ubuntu or Mint), you can create a "wrapper" package. This package will contain the .exe and list as a dependency. Install Required Tools : sudo apt install devscripts debhelper wine Use code with caution.

: Windows programs rely on .dll files; Linux programs rely on shared object ( .so ) files.
