Fedora :: YUM Install Wine As Root?
Oct 28, 2010
I managed to completely screw up my wine, so decided to go from scratch.
yum remove wine*
rm -rf /home/jan1024188/.wine
Now when I go yum install wine it installs as root and in /root/.wine. I don't want this. What do I do?

Lot of questions about WINE... When I'm done I'm going to make a HOWTO so that others can do what I did It's hard work, but I'm nearly done.The last problem I'm having is the WINE menu on GNOME won't show up after a install of WINE from a .deb package (it usually does). This was after I compiled WINE from source and removed it with "make uninstall" and "rm -rf /.wine".So now I installed the WINE from a deb package and the Wine menu entry is not showing up.I've tried re-installing Wine and rebooting my PC but nothing seems to work.

Fedora 13 (2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.i686)"yum install wine" ends with an error message. If I understood correctly it complains about missing wine-common package "Requires: wine-common = 1.2.0-1.fc13".However, when trying to install wine-common "yum install wine-common" it says it is already installed "Package wine-common-1.2.0-1.fc13.noarch already installed and latest version".
Code:
[root@nc6000 boris]# yum install wine
Loaded plugins: downloadonly, fastestmirror, presto, refresh-packagekit, remove-
[code]....

I have fedora 14 installed on my dell laptop and I am trying to install wine (wine-core). I downloaded it in rpm format but when in tried to install it I got a message that I needed to install two more packages (nss-mdsn and wine-common). I installed nss-mdsn but when I tried to install wine-common I got a message that I have to install wine core for it and when I tried to install wine-core. I got a message to install wine-common first and I tried to install both of them at the same time but still it didn't work. I cant install it online with yum because of a few other problems.

I have found sometimes that programs won't install in wine, but when i run setup as root, they will install just fine. I do not use them this way because I do not trust wine running as root on my system.

I recently installed Fedora 11 with VMware workstation. I downloaded the Wine file (wine-1.0.1.tar.bz2 and wine-1.0.1.tar.bz2.sign, its a source archive i think)from [URL]. Those two files are now in my flash disk. I went throught the wine user guide but they haven't explained about how to install it in detail, but i found that, "Compiling & installing Wine from source is slightly more difficult than using a package".
I went to [URL] looking for packages but again its saying, i should install some library's before building Wine and leads to [URL]. I went there & found a web page with some codes.

The newest version of wine 32-bit (1.1.32?) seems to be a disaster. I had Newsbin Pro working great in Fedora 10. Now this program won't run with wine.i686 on Fedora 12 x64.
I have tried Crossover Linux 8 standard and Newsbin Pro works with that. Crossover is using wine 1.1.18. However that will cost me $40.
How do I install an older version of wine with the dependencies in Fedora 12 x64?
I searched for an rpm and found various flavors of wine rpms. Can I just install that older rpm?

I am currently using Ubuntu 10.10 and am wanting to switch to Fedora 14. I have always loved the way Fedora looked and felt. So I am finally making the transition. But I am wondering does Wine work well with Fedora 14? If so how do I install through the terminal. I know it is the harder way but I find it gives me more customization. I prefer it, so what would the command be? With Ubuntu it is sudo apt-get install wine1.2 what is it in Fedora?

I am new to fedora and installed wine to see if I could get the sony reader software working (required to access sony bookstore from my sony ereader). Well the program did not work though it did create icons on my desktop. wine kept crashing and I said lets just get rid of it. I uninstalled wine via yum remove and nothing appeared to happen so I did rpm -qa |grep wine and saw lots of stuff. So I simply did yum remove wine* and then a rpm -qa |grep wine was empty. however wine is still under applications on my desktop and still has a category for programs--reader. I should also mention that while wine was installed I attempted to remove the reader via the wine uninstalller but a) wine gave a message of a core crash and b) all the uninstaller did was give me the option to reinstall the reader program. so now when I attempt to open an epub it tries with the sony reader software. I know I can just right click to use another program but for now I want wine gone completely from my pc and the sony program gone.

I am running 64-bit Fedora 12, and am trying to install Diablo 1 through Wine. I installed wine from Yum, installed Diablo fine, but when I try to run it I get this message: wine: '/home/obriem5/.wine' is a 32-bit prefix, it cannot be used with wow64 Wine. On a side note, I tried installing Diablo using the guide given here, but received errors when trying to use the patch. (i.e, instead of seeing 'Hunk #1 succeeded', etc, I see 'Hunk #1 failed', etc.)

When I install wine the add/remove program wants to install both 86_64 and i686 files. I have the x86_64 version of Fedora 14. I am having problems with counterstrike and have installed it using Wine, have noted problems when both types of files are installed.
I would like to have Fedora set up just right but as with all Linux distros, am having trouble keeping my head above water with fc14. I have success up to a point and then want to go back to Windows for its simplicity. Just this wine problem

I like to do a minimal install, and then run some of my own scripts to install the rest of the packages I need, so to keep a lean system. When installing F14 with a partitioning scheme as follows:
Code:
/boot - 500MB
LVM
- swap - 2048 MB
- / - 15GB
- /home - Rest of file system - Encrypted
Everything works fine and the encryption works with no problem. However, as a friend pointed out to me, if you partition as follows:
Code:
/boot - 100MB/ - Rest of filesystem - Encrypted You are not able to boot the system when doing a minimal install. Meaning: you get up to the point to where you need to enter your password to decrypt the filesystem, and then nothing but..., well, nothing. However, and here it gets interesting, if you use the same partition layout, and you install the "Graphical Desktop", everything works fine. As I can not understand why this happens, I am currently testing a partition setup like so:
Code:
/boot - 100MB
LVM - Encrypted
- / - Rest of filesystem
Just to see if that works.
Anyhow: to make a long story short: It seems that the minimal install "forgets" to add some packages which are needed to decrypt the filesystem. Does anyone know which package this could be or why this occurs, so it can be added as part of the minimal install?

I found difficulties on installing software in fedora 14. I'm trying this for 2 weeks and still there is no progress. I am forced to use fedora 14 as my OS since WRF is good in linux OS. I am hoping for soonest response for this matter because I need to run this as soon as possible for my thesis. and also A step by step solution for me to understand and install w/o any problems.
