If, as suggested, you had carefully read the previous thread you [url=https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=25409&forum=44&post_id=104179#forumpost104179]posted in[/url] you might have learned that there is no 64-bit Wine, and that to get the 32-bit version you need to install the [url=http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories?highlight=(EPEL)]EPEL repo[/url], and consider installing and configuring the [url=http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities]yum priorities plugin[/url], then simply [code]
yum install wine
[/code]
OR if it is disabled by default as often recommended
[code]
yum --enablerepo epel install wine
[/code]
yum install wine

Hi pschaff,
Nice to meet you again. Unfortunatly, your first command : yum install wine dont works for me, maybe because I dont have enable the repositories.
Thank you in advance for your suport.

The expected result. Install and enable the EPEL repository either by default or using the second command.

Hi pschaff ,
Unfortunatly, using the last command :
yum --enablerepo epel install wine
I obtained the next results:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Error getting repository data for epel, repository not found
Before of this I used:
>su
>password
What means this answer, and how could be repaired ?
Thank you in advance for support.
Best regards.

Hi pschaff,
I resolve my problem in the next manner: I installed first RPMforge and the second step EPELrepository. Now everithing works good.
Thank you and to all community for support and advice.

Re: Steps to install Wine for beginners ?
You're welcome, but be aware that EPEL and RPMforge may not work well together. The use, and careful configuration, of the yum-priorities plugin, and/or of exclude= and includepkg= directives in the repo configs, may be required to prevent package dependency problems and conflicts, and to avoid unintended replacement of core packages by 3rd party packages when you update.
