I believe we discussed it on this same list before and I showed you how
to run wine in SL7 (in container with Fedora, using either
systemd-nspawn or docker). Which is no-overhead solution, well basically
this is only overhead of having a directory with base Fedora system in
there.

Specifically,

(though by now you'd want to use fedora 21 repo for more up-to-date
wine)
