sudo apt-get update & sudo apt install wine-stable.sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/unstable.Remove your current version of wine prior to installing the new version.I used whereis winetricks to find it and moved the downloaded winetricks to that location (for example /usr/bin/winetricks).Note: wine1.7 and the version in repo for winetricks failed for installing dotdeb (required for ADE 2.0.1) so I installed the latest winetricks and wine However, this is what I did to get it working. Unfortunately getting it to work is convoluted and will use +5GB of space. The other answers no longer work (or did for me). The downloaded files include steps specific for your device. My books bought or owned on the Kobo and Amazon ebook stores can be quite trivially processed with the plugins included in the DeDRM packages linked in my original answer, as they rely on the device ID for DRM removal. Update 2: The DeDRM tools linked in here are even more straightforward for use if you legally own an ebook device. Only version 2.0.1 works with this method of removing DRMs, and it is still quite difficult to get it set up properly in Wine. Attempts to download ebooks into it inevitably fail. Update 1: ADE 1.7 no longer works properly in Wine. To get your keys from Adobe into the Calibre ebook reader, you will need to install the Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) with Wine.įollow the instructions in the DRM removal plugin to get it working. You will need to install calibre, and get the DRM removal plug-in separately. There is a convoluted process to getting the DRM stripped from your ebooks, but it is possible.
