When I try to build wine 1.1.15 in Fedora 8 I get this error

All previous wine versions are builds without any problems.
What can I do to build wine 1.1.15 in Fedora 8?

What your CFLAGS and ./configure options look like?

If you look at the messages more closely it says:

    sh: i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as: command not found
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you look earlier in your configure output it probably says it found
the 'as' command to be 'as' instead of
'i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as'
(because 'i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as' doesn't exist).

I've traced this down to tools/winegcc which is constructing various tool
commands with the compiler target names (eg: i686-redhat-linux-gnu + as)
instead of using what configure discovered for those commands (eg:
'as').
It does this based on the '-b i686-redhat-linux-gnu' argument.

This might have some relevency to newer gcc versions which appear to
install a full name set for the target compiler commands.  My solution
was simply to create symlinks for what's missing.  Eg: for a target name
of "i686-redhat-linux-gnu" do:

% su -
Password:

cd /usr/bin
ln -s as i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as
ln -s ld i686-redhat-linux-gnu-ld
ln -s nm i686-redhat-linux-gnu-nm
ln -s ar i686-redhat-linux-gnu-ar
ln -s ranlib i686-redhat-linux-gnu-ranlib
ln -s strip i686-redhat-linux-gnu-strip
ln -s cpp i686-redhat-linux-gnu-cpp

Hope that helps.

Symbolic links helps to build wine.

Also it is necessary to make  this symbolic link in /usr/bin
ln -s gcc i686-redhat-linux-gnu-gcc

Get rid of all this crap. The only option you need is "--prefix=/usr".
