Uninstall wine from source and configuration files

[renatorabelo]

Hi people .

Im new to Wine Forums and to Linux World,and i had a problem .
I installed Wine 1.1.8 from source and them i make a uninstall .
I upgrade to 1.1.9 but my configuration wine file still remains (the 1.18 version ) .
I want to uninstall everything (including the configuration files) except the aplications.
how do i do that ? and i dont want to "rm" the .wine directory.
can i do a #make uninstall with a "purge " option ?

Thanks.

The applications and configuration file are stored together. Wine will
automatically update the config files, so no need to worry.

The question is rather: why do you want to uninstall everything related to Wine if you' re just going to install a newer version of Wine? There is pretty much NEVER a need to uninstall a previous version of an app just to install a new one under Linux.
