By default, the "wine" package brings in the 32-bit wine stack, because ~95% of Windows applications are 32-bit only, and the i686 wine stack is required to run 32-bit Windows applications. You can remove the i686 stack, but everything in "~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)" will cease to work. If that's empty or you can replace them with 64-bit versions, you'll be fine. To remove the i686 stack, first remove the "wine" package, which is simply a metapackage that drags in both the i686 and x86_64 wine stacks. (The actual meat of wine is in the "wine-core" package.) You can then remove all the i686 wine packages and leave the x86_64 packages intact. -T.C. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
