So what I did:
1. rpm -Uvh wine-20041201-1fc3winehq.i686.rpm
2. rpm -Uvh winetools-2.1.0-jo.i386.rpm
3. wt ((now of course as a non-root user))
4. Goto 'Base setup'
5. Create a fake Windows drive
6. True Type Font Arial
7. DCOM98
8. Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 German
9. Save your wine directory
10. exit
11. Manually install further sw, like irfanview ...

All installed software run as expected!
Now new winetools version 2.11 appears on the scene:
12. rpm -Uvh winetools-2.1.1-jo.i386.rpm

Installed sw still run als expected.

13. Starting winetools ('winetools') gives:
'Your config is not the one that comes with recent WineTools.'
'You should copy WineTools config.211 to .wine/config.'
'Shall I do that for you?'
Giving 'Yes' starts WineTools, and that's precisely where my question comes in:


What are the nexts steps to take, and in which order, if I want to keep my old (pre-2.11) installation with all installed software?


You don't have to do anything. WineTools already changed to the new
config. Your Base setup is OK, should not be repeated and you don't have
to do anything further. Look into "Install tested software" and enjoy
the new programs you can install with it.

Thanks, that clarifies a lot. So, after having installed a new version of winetools, the only thing left to complete the update is to fire up wintetools and make it copy the new config (my step 13 mentioned above) - or do that manually.
