It can be a pain to install all the needed development packages to build 
BOTH the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Wine for the old-style 
Windows-on-Windows mode. So here's what is hopefully the simplest way to 
do so on distributions based on Debian and openSUSE [1].

  wget https://gitlab.winehq.org/fgouget/wt-daily/-/raw/master/wt-install-dev
  sudo sh ./wt-install-dev


Then build Wine normally, no containers or VMs needed. So assuming you 
have the source in wine, just run:

  mkdir wow32 wow64
  cd wow64 && ../wine/configure --enable-win64 && make
  cd ../wow32 && ../wine/configure --with-wine64=../wow64 && make


Of course you're also all set for builds using the new WoW approach:

  cd wine && ./configure --enable-archs=i386,x86_64 && make



[1] More specifically this has been tested on:
    Debian 11 (bullseye), 12 (bookworm)
    Elementary OS 7 Horus (stable and unstable)
    openSUSE Leap 15.4, Tumbleweed
    Pop!_OS 22.04
    Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS, 23.04

    Patches to extend support to other distributions are welcome.

In theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice they're different.
