I've just installed debian on my system. I used to use redhat, but the upgrades were anoying and I saw debian as more stable and better supported by a community of knowledgable people.
Anyway, on redhat I installed wine myself. Not everything you install seems to go so smoothly, but for wine I downloaded the latest source distribution, untared it in the /usr/src directory and then read the INSTALL text. >From memory, I typed, configure, make and make install. It worked and installed it in the /usr/local directory, which doesn't upset you debian/redhat distribution. So it is easy, but please do read the instructions carefully. david..
