Having tons of problems with WINE
 

OK i would like to use my windows apps on Fedora and i tried to install wine following some instructions i got, then wine said it was unable to work etc etc, so i was going to uninstall so i used the Make uninstall and it did its thing and then said error 2 ? now when i try the wine command it says
bash: wine: command not found

but if i try to install the wine fedora core 1 rpm pack it says that a version of wine is allready installed... how can i completeley remove all wine install files?

sorry im a
:newbie:


please help me out, im really trying to learn all this stuff i really enjoy using non MS stuff!


Thanks again!

John David

anyone?

i tried to remove by
[root@localhost root]# rpm wine-20040121-1rh73winehq -e
error reading information on service wine: No such file or directory
error: %preun(wine-20040121-1rh73winehq) scriptlet failed, exit status 1

what the heck does this mean? and if itry to install a new package it tells me that it is allready installed.... and then if i try to run wine in the command promt i get

bash: wine: command not found


im really confused here... ive gotten everything else to work but this wont seem to go for me:scratch:

I have no experience with Wine, so I can't help you there, but your removal command was wrong. When uninstalling, it's like this: rpm -e "package name" instead of putting the -e
at the end. Almost ALL UNIX commands require the option right after the command name
and THEN the file or package that you are playing with.

[root@localhost root]# rpm -e wine-20040121-1rh73winehq
error reading information on service wine: No such file or directory
error: %preun(wine-20040121-1rh73winehq) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
