Installing Wine on Centos 5

Decided to try loading Wine on my Centos 5 install. It was dead simple. These instructions should also work for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

First step was to load the EPEL yum repository:

rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-2.noarch.rpm

Next I just called yum to install wine:

yum install wine

That's it. Afterwards, I found Wine on my Applications menu, and was able to double click on a Windows installer (WinSCP in this case), and it just worked!

Spot on - exactly what it said on the tin...

Only difference being I have no WinSCP - 'Wine Configuration' has tab for adding executables but, for example, selecting iexplore.exe from the browse does not seem to do anything.

I'll continue to dig but from an install point of view, very impressed...

Thanks, I've been searching for this.

I need to run Internet explorer to monitor an application.

I plan to use IEs4Linux on WINE

Also, since it's been a while since this was posted, they're now at release 5.3.

So for 64 bit installs:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm

And for 32 bit installs:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
