    Re: How do I remove Wine Packages

    Maybe no one knows. Maybe no one has time to reply. How did you uninstall Wine? How did you originally install it, using yum --enablerepo=updates-testing install wine ??

    Re: How do I remove Wine Packages

    Hello
    5.1. How do I uninstall Windows applications?
    Wine has its own built-in uninstaller - the equivalent of Windows' "Add/Remove Programs" function for running standardized uninstallers.

    Note that Wine does not fully implement everything required to cleanly uninstall all applications. Some uninstallers might not function at all. To remove all programs installed under Wine, remove the ~/.wine directory:

    Please note that in the following commands there should be no spaces in the path, particularly between $HOME/ and .whatever.


    rm -rf $HOME/.wine

    Also the uninstaller does not remove menu and desktop entries. To remove all Wine-created menu entries run the following commands


    rm -f $HOME/.config/menus/applications-merged/wine*
    rm -rf $HOME/.local/share/applications/wine
    rm -f $HOME/.local/share/desktop-directories/wine*
    rm -f $HOME/.local/share/icons/????_*.xpm
