I'm having issues with getting Wine64 to even install properly. I'm using an AMD 64 processor with Fedora 14 x64. When I try to get things working, here's what I get with the gcc:

Touching configure...
[root@Iceburgh gcc-svn]# cd ..
[root@Iceburgh Iceburgh]# rm -rf gcc-build

Use gcc as supplied by Fedora. It should be gcc-4.4.5 or so and Wine
should build with it (I'm using a Mac and it builds with gcc-4.2 as
supplied by Apple.) There are reported warnings with gcc-4.6 and
those are being worked by developers.

Also, it is not necessary to build (and it is recommended against)
Wine as root. root is only needed for installation (sudo make
install.)

Now you see why I'm having so much difficulty. Conflicting information, some of it applicable, some of it not so much. I can't find one comprehensive set of instructions. When I followed the link, the packages installed just fine, but when I tried the ./configure, it says ./configure not found, and no target for the make command.

You need to be in the source directory when you run ./configure and make, and don't run them as root.
