You shouldn't use the glob (*). yum expects the package name(s) you
supply to be an exact match on the initial part of the name - the
remainder of the name gives the package's target hardware, version and
the Fedora distribution containing it. 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.
