you are new to linux, right? ...
no problem
have a version in the software center ...
You can also install it through the terminal, as follows:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install minetest


will ask the user key and confirm the installation ...

if you want the current stable version visit this link, which will explain how to add the repository containing that version ...

https://launchpad.net/~minetestdevs/+archive/stable?field.series_filter=

After installing the repository, and updated, to install is similar to before ...

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install minetestc55


care ... Note that the package name is different ...

What's the point to run Minetest with Wine when there's already a Linux version ?

What prevents you from making a linux build of your version?

Eh. WINE 1.4 runs minetest just fine, thankfully. Still crashes like the native one (throwing mod deaths), but runs.
