To check that wine, rpm and rpm development tools are installed via Fedora packages: $ sudo yum list wine rpm rpm-devel Installed Packages rpm.i386 4.4.2.2-7.fc8 installed rpm-devel.i386 4.4.2.2-7.fc8 installed wine.i386 1.1.9-2.fc8 installed $ Use the same name to install, uninstall or upgrade packages: sudo yum remove wine # uninstall wine sudo yum install wine # (re)install wine sudo yum upgrade wine # make sure you have the latest package wine Install and upgrade will automatically handle dependencies.
