Remember that Wine is not an emulator therefore it will only work on x86 or x86_64 Multilib systems.

Introduction to Wine
Wine is an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X and Unix.
Think of Wine as a compatibility layer for running Windows programs. Wine does not require Microsoft Windows, as it is a completely free alternative implementation of the Windows API consisting of 100% non-Microsoft code, however Wine can optionally use native Windows DLLs if they are available. Wine provides both a development toolkit for porting Windows source code to Unix as well as a program loader, allowing many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes, including Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris.

Dependencies
Required
Recomended
Optional
Non-Multilib x86
Compile the package:
./configure --prefix=/opt/wine-1.1.38 --disable-debug && make depend && make
Install the package
make install && ln -sfvn wine-1.1.38 /opt/wine
Multilib x86_64
For running 32bit apps
Compile the package:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" USE_ARCH=32 \ ./configure --prefix=/opt/wine-1.1.38 --disable-debug && make depend && make
Install the package
make install && ln -sfvn wine-1.1.38 /opt/wine
For running 64bit apps (Not Worth It)
See http://www.winehq.com/pipermail/wine-devel/2006-June/048758.html for more information. If you would like to build it anyway don't let this warning stop you.
Compile the package:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" USE_ARCH=64 \ ./configure --prefix=/opt/wine-1.1.38 --enable-win64 --disable-debug && make depend && make
Install the package
make install && ln -sfvn wine-1.1.38 /opt/wine
Configuration
50-wine.sh
If you're using the Bash Startup Files create an addition for them with the following command:
cat > /etc/profile.d/50-wine.sh << "EOF" # Begin /etc/profile.d/50-wine.sh export PATH="${PATH}:/opt/wine/bin" export XDG_DATA_DIRS="${XDG_DATA_DIRS}${XDG_DATA_DIRS+:}/opt/wine/share" # End /etc/profile.d/50-wine.sh EOF
Simple config
/opt/wine/bin/winecfg
