------- Additional Comments From truiken@gmail.com 2006-12-09 18:49 ------- Joe, you really need to relax. You're running Wine from rpms that we don't make. These rpms *probably* weren't compiled with the necessary libraries. And to quote myself, I said "most likely fontforge or freetype-devel", not "you don't have fontforge and freetype-devel installed and I know it!"
pequod(~) wine --configure verbose
'Running configure' implies that you have the source code to wine, and you run
pequod(~) ./configure --verbose
to see what libraries you're missing. The fact that winecfg and wine crash means there's a problem with your Wine rpm, and this bug should be marked invalid because of that.
...and the fact that I uninstalled all traces of wine and then reinstalled
_all_ the wine*-0.9.20-1.fc5 rpms, means that if I am missing files, then the rpm packaging is broken.
You are exactly right, Joe, your rpm packages are broken. Please file a bug with your distro (Fedora). You can compile Wine from source and report back.
Here's a link for Fedora's bug tracking system:

Here's a link for downloading and compiling Wine from source:

I'm marking this as invalid. If you compile from source, or the Fedora packages are fixed, and the app is still not installed, then reopen the bug.
