Cannot run winetricks with Wine64 on Linux

[IQubic]

So, I'm using Linux, and specifically NixOS. I am trying to run a 64 bit application using wine64. However, in order to run this particular program, I need dotnet installed in the 64 bit environment. When I run a command like winetricks -q dotnet48 I get the error warning: WINE is wine, which is neither on the path nor an executable file

The issue here is that I only have wine64 on my $PATH, and no executable with the name wine. Is there something I'm missing here?

wine64 shouldn't exist on its own. If that's the case, you likely built wine with --enable-win64, without building the corresponding 32-bit wine components.

The new wow64 style wine builds a wine executable called 'wine', that supports 32/64 bit binaries.

Where did your Wine build come from? If it's from NixOS, file a bug there. If you built it yourself, check out https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/wikis/Building-Wine
