Yes I know.
You should make that directory. Just make a .wine dir in your home, and
everything will work ok.
I think there is a glitch in the Redhat profile - they forgot to create that
dir.
But if you want to play with the wine sources, or you want to file bug
reports, then you should upgrade to the newest version.
Good Luck
