Can't find a .winerc anywhere. At installation wine made up a
/etc/wine/config.
'man wine' says: 
"wine expects a configuration file (/etc/wine/config), [...].
*Alternatively* a configuration file with the name config in the
~/.wine directory of the user running wine can be used."
So, as /etc/wine/config is there, why does wine refuse to start by
complaining that it can't find ~/.wine/config ? And what's it all
about having .winerc instead of config ?
I'm using release 20010629 so it's a fairly new release.
