             Bug #: 32873
           Summary: Wine unable to install
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: d3553 at hotmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Wine is unfortunately almost impossible to use. 
I first installed wine 1.2.2 from the repository. Then tried to use it to
install MSOffice2003. Didn't work.
Then I uninstalled that wine version and tried installing a newer one.
Impossible. there is a link on your site to wine 1.4. When using the link to
install wine, I get a cryptic message that it is "virtual". 
When using the link to 1.5, I get a message that it is not found.

I've now tried to locate it somewhere else on your site. Lot's of referrals,
nothing useful; going in circles or to dead ends. 

2 things would improve things a lot:
1: clearly state what version(s) can be used.
2: make those versions available and installable.
