wine users - Feb 2007 - Wine does nothing Help !!!!!

Hello everyone..

	I have installed wine-0.9.30 from source ( just ran tools/wineinstall from the
source directory ). It installed without any problems. But when I try to run any
program using wine it does nothing, just hangs there. It does not give any error
also.
I did a "strace" on the process here is some of the strace output.

It's bad, mind you I know little about that stuff. You didn't say you
compiled wine before installing it :-o. Most packages have a README &
INSTALL files in the source, which are compulsory reading.

The lazy way to install wine on fc6 is here
http://www.fedorafaq.org/#wine and you currently get 0.9.3(splash)

	Uninstall your current package with Wine and try to compile from source. 
Don't afraid, that's very simple! Download 
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-0.9.30.tar.bz2 , unpack it, cd 
to just created directory and execute:

	./configure --verbose && make all && sudo make install

	And that's it, you have Wine compiled from source. It is likely that this 
will work for you and if so then package with Wine in your distribution is 
broken. I assume that you have used precompiled package because it is typical 
(oh, maybe not actually typical but it happens) for precompiled Wine packages 
to not work correctly.
