Yes, and did you have root run /sbin/ldconfig after copying shared files
to, say /usr/lib?

ldd is a very handy tool for sorting out shared library problems.

ldd wine

if none of those end with => not found, recurse until one does:

ldd ./wine|cut -d \> -f 2|cut -f 2 -d  " "|xargs ldd

ldd ./wine|cut -d \> -f 2|cut -f 2 -d  " "|xargs ldd \
|cut -d \> -f 2|cut -f 2 -d  " "|xargs ldd
You don't have to copy anything to run wine from <wine>, btw,
just set LD_LUBRARY_PATH to <wine>:<wine>/dlls and WINESERVER to
<wine>/server/wineserver.  With bash, the usual way is to export those
values before running ./wine

You might like to make a script to do it.
