winelauncher has a button to copy the default config to ~/.wine.  Can anything
be added to the Red Hat wine package to make this automatic if ~/.wine does not
exist?

Comment 2 Elliot Peele 2002-03-26 20:56:48 UTC
if you do descide to add this as a default for every new user you would have to
add them to the wine group in order for them to be able to do much of anything.
you might want to add soemting to copy /etc/wine.userreg to $HOME/.wine/user.reg
and /etc/wine.system.reg to $HOME/.wine/system.reg
