I ran rm -rf~/.wine and it went through the uninstall procedure. then I did wine --version and it showed wine-0.9.56 so I did rm -rf~/.wine as root and it uninstalled drive c. then I checked wine --version and it showed I still have wine-0.9.56. how do I get rid of this so I can install wine wine 0.9l.60.tar.bz2? I checked where wine was and it does not exist unless somehow it was moved during this uninstall.

If you installed with "make install", try "make uninstall".

That "configuration" being registry and "fake c: drive". So you did not really uninstalled Wine. You removed it's configuration and all windows programs that you installed under Wine. To uninstall - see what Dan said. The only thing I can add is for rpm based distros that command would be 'rpm -e wine'
the ~.wine directory is gone and the fake c drive is also gone so I cannot uninstall wine. I ran a search for all files containing wine and this is what I got file:///etc/wine file:///home/trevor/.local/share/applications/wine file:///usr/include/wine file:///usr/lib/wine file:///usr/local/include/wine file:///usr/local/lib/wine file:///usr/local/share/wine file:///usr/share/wine file:///usr/bin/wine file:///usr/local/bin/wine so do I delete each file, parts of files or what?
