I am trying to install Wine on Amazon Linux AMI.

First I did:

 sudo yum install wine

It said "No wine package available."

Then I did the following:

 sudo rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm sudo yum install wine -y

At the end of the output I get the following:

... --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: wine-core-1.0.1-1.el5.i386 (epel) Requires: libgphoto2_port.so.0 Error: Package: wine-esd-1.0.1-1.el5.i386 (epel) Requires: libesd.so.0 Error: Package: wine-core-1.0.1-1.el5.i386 (epel) Requires: libgphoto2.so.2 Error: Package: wine-desktop-1.0.1-1.el5.i386 (epel) Requires: desktop-file-utils >= 0.8 Error: Package: wine-esd-1.0.1-1.el5.i386 (epel) Requires: libaudiofile.so.0 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Can you help me to get Wine installed and running?

It seems there's no wine package for Amazon Linux.

You can always install from source: http://www.winehq.org/docs/wineusr-guide/installing-wine-source

Just install the dependencies needed to build from source with yum.

What is the version of Amazon Linux you are using ?

Recent Amazon AMI's are based on EL6 upstream. EPEL 6 bundles wine.

I ran across this page while looking for an answer. Here is what I eventually found out:

  1. Modify /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo. Under the section marked [epel], change enabled=0 to enabled=1. You can do this with the command "sudo vi /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo"
  2. Install WINE with "sudo yum install wine"
  3. Install any dependencies

See this page for reference: http://aws.amazon.com/amazon-linux-ami/faqs/
