CentOS - Dec 2019 - CENTOS8: running wine 32 bits?

All,
  I need to run some legacy Windows software (32 bits) under my Linux box.
I have installed wine from the source the 64 bits works fine but not the 32
bits.

  The ./configure gives

Epel8 provides wine, like for 7 but *not* to run 32bits.

Pablo Greco (CentOS armhfp maintainer) provides some compatible builds
(and following upstream epel, modified to be built for i686) on his
personal space (unsigned packages !) here :
https://people.centos.org/pgreco/wine32.el8/

Worth knowing that he also shares .spec here :
https://github.com/psgreco/wine

Just when writing this mail, I realize that while .spec is at correct
4.0.3 (so like Epel) the built packages are still at 4.0.2, so I guess
he'll take care of that soon :)

Cheers,
