After some research, here is a tutorial about how to install Line on Ubuntu 12.04
PREVIOUS STEP 1: install p7zip-full from the Ubuntu Software Repository
PREVIOUS STEP 2: Install vcrun2008 with winetricks. This second step is quite tough, here are the instructions:
Getting Winetricks (Note: Winetricks is also available from Ubuntu repository):
wget http://winetricks.org/winetricks
chmod +x winetricks
Open Winetricks:
./winetricks
An Interface is prompted select the default profile
STEP 1 : Open a Terminal and create a new temporal directory and move to it:
mkdir line_tmp
cd line_tmp
STEP 2 : Get the last Line software version from the official website:
wget http://dl.desktop.line.naver.jp/naver/LINE/win/LineInst.exe
7z x -y LineInst.exe
STEP 3: Procced with the installation as state on this website:
inode1=$(ls -ilab | awk 'FNR == 4 {print $1}')
inode2=$(ls -ilab | awk 'FNR == 6 {print $1}')
find . -inum $inode1 -exec mv {} LINE ;
find . -inum $inode2 -exec mv {} resources ;
mv ./resources/res ./LINE
mv ./LINE ../
cd ..
rm -R line_tmp
STEP 4:
Go to your home folder
there is a folder named Line and inside the Line.exe file
Open this file with wine.
