Ah, yes ... I did wonder if that might be the case, so I did remove all
the RPMs and manually removed /etc/wine and ~/.wine to be sure. After
uninstalling, I re-installed (which didn't need the --force coz I'd
removed the previous package.)

I am curious about having to manually delete all files from the old
package. I only worried about config. directories because usually an RPM
upgrade (-Uvh for example) will sort out replacement/addition/deletion
of binaries. Just to be sure, I've uninstalled again, but this time
deleted all those files as you mentioned, but sadly it still seems to be
the same. It's an odd one, certainly. Any ideas maybe?!?


Thanks for your comments & advice so far!
