After some research, here is a tutorial about how to install Line on Ubuntu 12.04



PREVIOUS STEPS



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


  • Select "Install a Windows DLL or component"; click OK

  • Select vcrun2008S; click OK

  • Follow the installation instructions.






LINE INSTALLATION



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.
