Thank you.  Coming from you, that is a big compliment.  :-)

Hi Nico,

Sadly, I don't know how.

My conversations with EPEL pretty much show them only supporting
64 bit apps from here on.  Red Hat shifted a bunch of things
to them too, in an effort to have fewer things themselves
to support.  EPEL is pretty swamped.

This is (my) the running request for 1.7.x Wine in EPEL.
