Removing the directory is almost always the wrong way to remove wine.

</question>
<answer>
<para>
All you have to do is to type:
</para>
<screen>
rm -fR \[/path/\]Wine*
</screen>
<para>
Make sure that you specify the exact path when using the powerful
<command>rm -fR</command> command. If you are afraid that you might
delete something important, or might otherwise delete other files
within your file system, <command>cd</command> into each Wine
sub directory singly and delete the files found there manually,
one file or directory at a time.
</para>
<para>
Neither the Wine developers and programmers, nor the Wine FAQ
author/maintainer, can be held responsible for your deleting any
files in your own file system.
It depends on how you installed. If you used an RPM, the right command is this:
<command>rpm -e wine (as root)</command>
</para>
<para>
If you installed from source (the .tar.gz file), the right
way to do it is to change to the root of the source tree (the directory with the configure script,
readme etc) then run as root:
<command>make uninstall</command>
</para>
