wine users - Jun 2001 - Wine installer

Hi,

when I run ./tools/wineinstall, I get this:
Warning !! wine binary (still) found, which may indicate
a (conflicting) previous installation.
You might want to abort and uninstall Wine first.

rpm -qa | grep wine gives nothing

find / "*wine*" gives:

Why does this message come ? I don't have wine installed ! Does anybody
know,
when exactly this error occurs (what does it look for).

from a casual look at tools/wineinstall, it seems it does a

which wine

and if that gives a result, it thinks it has found a wine binary.

Try it yourself and see what you get.  Maybe you have a strange PATH or
a strange which that misleads wineinstall.

The thing is: it gives me something different for root, there it gives me:
which: no wine in (/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin)      

why  is this ?

"which" is a shell command. Under bash, it gives the value of the
path,
as above, if the command is not found. Under tcsh (the shell I normally
use) it returns nothing if the command is not found. I believe that is
also the case for most other csh variants.
