Considering that the wine RC's also have some major regression issue's, i fully agree with Caleb. If you really want wine rc, grab it from the arch-games repo [arch-games] Server = http://repo.exigen.org/arch/games/$ARCH/ Although it's still -rc4 there. And if you really don't like it if your not full bleeding, use testing or abs :)
