Tested with Garuda Linux "Broadwing"
Recent versions of Wine Stable, Wine Development, and Wine Staging are available. There are also WoW64 versions of Wine Development and Wine Staging. These allow both 64-bit and 32-bit applications to run on a pure Wine 64-bit build, with no need for 32-bit libraries (such as multilib). See Arch Linux's Announcement and Potential Issues
These are the package names for the Garuda's Wine versions.
To install Wine, you can use either Garuda's Octopi Add/Remove Software app or Terminal commands.
Octopi Click the Octopi icon in the panel, enter wine in the search field, click the tiny box on the left of the version of Wine you want to install, click Install in the window that pops up. Continue to follow the prompts. Installation is complete when you see the message "Command finished OK!" at the lower left of the panel.
Terminal The next command will install Wine Development, but you can replace wine with any other version (such as wine-wow64).
$ sudo pacman -S wine
If optional dependencies are needed, they can be included or installed separately.
$ sudo pacman -S wine wine-mono wine-gecko samba
or
$ sudo pacman -S wine
$ sudo pacman -S wine-mono wine-gecko samba
Installing Wine displays the optional dependencies. If you need a copy of the optional dependencies list, execute the next command. As above, replace wine by the version of Wine that was installed.
$ pacman -Si wine
Open a Terminal window and execute
$ wine --version
