[Wine]FC3 (Newbee alert)

[Mark Knecht]

Don,
   That's still an RPM. Look for the link that takes you to
sourceforge and download the wine-20041019.tar.bz2 file. This is
distro neutral. build instructions aren't too much more than:

(from memory)

[As user
bunzip2 wine-20041019.tar.bz2
tar xvf wine-20041019.tar
cd wine
./autogen.sh  (may not be necessary)
./configure --prefix=/usr
make

[As root]
make install

And then as user run your wine setup and wine programs. This much
should at least get it installed. Whether it actually works for you is
another story... ;-)

- Mark
