How to Install Wine 5.6 on CentOS, RHEL and Fedora

Written by Rahul, Updated on April 17, 2020

Why use Wine:

With the increasing popularity of Linux desktops, There is another requirement occurred that we should have an application which can be used to run Windows applications. Windows has a long list of beautiful applications for users which are not available for Linux users. As we know that Linux does not support windows executable so WineHQ is a solution to run Windows applications and Linux systems.

The latest Wine 5.6 Development Release has been released on April 10, 2020. The main highlights of this release are full support for window transparency, and the new Mono package for .NET applications support.

This article will help you to install Wine 3.0 Stable Release on RHEL based systems. The Fedora users can use official yum repository provided by Wine team for the installation of latest Wine packages.

Step 1 – Prerequisite

Wine required many development packages. First, we recommend upgrading all system packages using following commands.

yum clean all
yum update

Now install required packages for Wine using yum package manager using following commands.

yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
yum install libX11-devel freetype-devel zlib-devel libxcb-devel \ 
      libxslt-devel libgcrypt-devel libxml2-devel gnutls-devel \
      libpng-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel libtiff-devel gstreamer-devel \ 
      dbus-devel fontconfig-devel

Step 2 – Install Wine

RPM packages for wine are not available for latest versions, So we need to download wine source code. Use below commands to download it.

cd /usr/src
wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine/source/5.x/wine-5.6.tar.xz
tar -Jxf wine-5.6.tar.xz
cd wine-5.6

Configure wine using one of the following command based on your system architecture. This will set the installation environment for Wine according to your system.

For 32-Bit Systems:
./configure

For 64-Bit Systems:
./configure  --enable-win64

Finally run the make and make install command to compile wine source and install it on your system.

make
make install

Step 3 – Check Wine Version

Use the following command to check version of wine installed on your system

On 32-Bit Systems:
wine --version

On 64-Bit Systems:
wine64 --version

How to Use Wine?

To use wine we need to login to GUI desktop. After that Download a windows executable (.exe) file like PuTTY on your system and open it with Wine as below screenshot or use following command.

wine putty.exe

Install Wine

    Hi there!

    This is really a nice site, – thanks Rahul. 🙂

    However, there exist now a somewhat easier install method from EPEL. And for all those who need also the 32bit Wine variant on latest CentOS 7.x check the harbottle REPO, https://gitlab.com/harbottle/wine32. Most recent version (for July 2019) is Wine 4.0.2.

    In short:

    # Install repos
    sudo yum -y install epel-release https://harbottle.gitlab.io/wine32/7/i386/wine32-release.rpm

    # Install Wine 64 bit and 32 bit
    sudo yum -y install wine wine.i686

    # Run Wine 64 bit, for example:
    wine64 cmd

    # Run Wine 32 bit, for example:
    wine32 cmd

    Hi Rahul,

    Thanks for this excellent article – I hope you will be able to help:
    – I have followed steps above methodically for OS Linux 6.6 64bit
    – Everything seems to be installed perfectly as I went through all the steps without any issues
    – However I could not run wine64 -version (single dash) or wine -version, wine64 –version returns wine-1.7.34
    – When I double clicked on .exe file nothing happens (including putty.exe)
    – I tried right clicked on “open with wine windows program loader” it is not doing anything too
    – I then tried command wine64 (as wine itself is not a recognisable command) start /Unix “$root/Desktop/putty.exe” it gives error “Application could not be started, or no application associated with the specified file. ShellExecuteEx failed: Internal error.”

    Can you please help?

    Thanks,

    GNUTLS headers are being found although GNUTLS libraries are evading detection. They are located on my system in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, and even with the LDFLAGS or GNUTLS_LIBS environment varible set to that directory, configure still fails to find the libraries.

    According to the README file I need to run.

    ./tools/wineinstall

    But when I try, I get this:

    > The source directory is not writable. You probably extracted the sources as root.
    > You should remove the source tree and extract it again as a normal user.

    I don’t understand. This tutorial shows doing everything as root. What exactly is involved in
    “remove the source tree and extract it again” ?

    Shouldn’t I be able to just do a chown, and a chmod?

    When I try to run wine as root I get:

    > You are running wineinstall as root, this is not advisable. Please rerun as a user.
    > Aborting.

    Any advice?

    configure: error: X development files not found. Wine will be built
    without X support, which probably isn’t what you want. You will need
    to install development packages of Xlib/Xfree86 at the very least.
    Use the –without-x option if you really want this.

      Hi Mesaj,

      It looks you do not have installed X Window on your system. So install it first.

      For CentOS/RHEL 6:
      # yum groupinstall “Desktop”

      For CentOS/RHEL 5:
      # yum groupinstall “GNOME Desktop Environment”

    Thank you so much for this article! It’s the only one I’ve been able to find that works, after a long week of searching for answers! You should package this somehow and get CentOS to include it in their next build! (I’m new, so I don’t know if that’s possible, but if it is, you should!) Thank you!!!

    Step 4:
    For 32-Bit Systems:
    # wine –version
    For 64-Bit Systems:
    # wine64 –version
