I am running Ubuntu GNOME 15.04, and I have got a Mac program in the Mac installation format (I believe it to a .dmg) which I wish to use, however I don't really have a functioning Mac to use it on and would prefer to use Ubuntu, so is there a similar program to Wine and PoL which runs Mac programs as opposed to, or as well as, Mac programs?

@bodhi.zazen: It's a chess app you wouldn't probably know of, however I would like the answer to be less program specific and more general so that it will help others in future, and me in future too so that I don't have to keep asking new questions about new programs... – Sep 18 '15 at 18:55

@bodhi.zazen: Also, I am not fully sure that it is a `.dmg` as there was a naming issue... – Sep 18 '15 at 18:56

mounting the `.dmg` wouldn't help you run the software – Daniel Sep 18 '15 at 18:57

Unfortunately there currently aren't any WINE like emulators that run Mac applications. However there is an application which is meant to do this which is currently in development called "Darling".

If it's graphical, Darling probably can't handle it at the moment, see: [http://www.darlinghq.org/project-status] – Jeffrey DeLeo Sep 18 '15 at 20:44
