Okay, I installed wine. Everything was going fine, until the very end, when it attempted to create registry entries, when I got the error:
programs/regapi/regapi: error while loading shared libraries: libntdll.dll.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Registry install failed.

I did a search for the file, and it's located in my /usr/local/lib/. Any suggestions as to how to get it to work?

If it would prove useful, here's my winecheck output:

This script verifies the configuration of the whole Wine environment.
Note that this is an ALPHA version, and thus it doesn't catch all problems !
The results of the checks are printed on the right side:
OK - test passed without problems.
SUSPICIOUS - potentially problematic. You might want to look into that.
BAD - This is a problem, and it leads to configuration score penalty.
CRITICAL - A critical problem which can easily lead to malfunction.
FAILED - This problem leads to Wine failure almost certainly.

The result will be printed as a percentage score indicating config completeness.


--------------------------- checking Wine base files ---------------------------
001. Checking for file "wine"... OK.
002. Checking for correct .so lib config (please wait)... DEBUG: found libwine: /usr/local/lib/libwine.so
OK.

----------------------------- checking config file -----------------------------
003. Checking config file access... OK.

>>> Checking drive A settings:
004. Checking Path option... OK.
005. Checking Type option... OK.
006. Checking device /dev/floppy... CRITICAL (/dev/floppy is not writable for you).
- ADVICE: If your user account is supposed to be able to access
it properly, use chmod as root to fix it ("man chmod").
--> PROBLEM.

>>> Checking drive C settings:
007. Checking Path option... OK.
008. Checking Type option... OK.
009. Checking Filesystem option... OK.
--> OK.

>>> Checking drive D settings:
010. Checking Path option... OK.
011. Checking Type option... OK.
012. Checking device /dev/cdrom... OK.
013. Checking Filesystem option... OK.
--> OK.

>>> Checking drive E settings:
014. Checking Path option... SUSPICIOUS (directory /tmp/orbit-root is not accessible for you).
- ADVICE: If your user account is supposed to be able to access
it properly, use chmod as root to fix it ("man chmod"). If that doesn't help, change mount options in case of VFAT ("umask" option).
015. Checking Type option... OK.
016. Checking Filesystem option... OK.
--> PROBLEM.

>>> Checking drive F settings:
017. Checking Path option... OK.
018. Checking Type option... OK.
019. Checking Filesystem option... OK.
--> OK.

--------------------- checking system devices used by Wine ---------------------
020. Checking sound device /dev/dsp... OK.
021. Checking audio mixer device /dev/mixer... OK.
022. Checking MIDI sequencer device /dev/sequencer... OK.

----------------------- checking registry configuration ------------------------
023. Checking availability of winedefault.reg entries... CRITICAL (entry "SHAREDMEMLOCATION" not found in system.reg registry file).
- ADVICE: file winedefault.reg doesn't seem to have been applied using regapi.
024. Checking availability of windows registry entries... CRITICAL (entry "Default Taskbar" not found).
- ADVICE: Windows registry does not seem to be added to Wine, as this typical Windows registry entry does not exist in Wine's registry. This can affect many newer programs. A complete original Windows registry entry set will *not* be available with a no-windows install, of course, so you'll have to live with that..

24 tests. 1 suspicious, 0 bad, 3 critical, 0 failed.
Wine configuration correctness score: 61.11%

Okay, update. Did some chmod-ing and have gotten the problems for drives A & E fixed in winecheck. My configuration correctness is up to 72.25%
