Joe, you really need to relax.  You're running Wine from rpms that we don't
make.  These rpms *probably* weren't compiled with the necessary libraries.  And
to quote myself, I said "most likely fontforge or freetype-devel", not "you
don't have fontforge and freetype-devel installed and I know it!"  

> pequod(~) wine --configure verbose

'Running configure' implies that you have the source code to wine, and you run

pequod(~) ./configure --verbose

to see what libraries you're missing.  The fact that winecfg and wine crash
means there's a problem with your Wine rpm, and this bug should be marked
invalid because of that.

> ...and the fact that I uninstalled all traces of wine and then reinstalled
_all_ the wine*-0.9.20-1.fc5 rpms, means that if I am missing files, then the
rpm packaging is broken.

You are exactly right, Joe, your rpm packages are broken.  Please file a bug
with your distro (Fedora).  You can compile Wine from source and report back.

Here's a link for Fedora's bug tracking system:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/index.cgi

Here's a link for downloading and compiling Wine from source:

http://winehq.org/site/docs/wineusr-guide/installing-wine-source

I'm marking this as invalid.  If you compile from source, or the Fedora packages
are fixed, and the app is still not installed, then reopen the bug.
