Hi, that version is over half a year old. Compiling from source is a bit harder than using RPMs, but not much. If you can keep up with CVS then upgrading is pretty easy as well.
Yes, I was wondering about this. RH are often quite good at new releases, but perhaps only for security issues or bugs they consider more serious in non-development systems and hence they've not even tried to deliver a newer RPM for Wine. Oh well, I might have to try biting the bullet. Very badly pressed for time at present though :(
Wine has not been updated for the latest beta (Phoebe), and it's not in Rawhide anymore. I think it has to do with a change to glibc-2.3 and a patch to the kernel (that same issue was discussed here, and affects Debian unstable or testing I think).
Or (shamelessly plugging myself), you can install the RPMs I maintain for RH8.0 at http://www.mecano.gme.usherb.ca/~vberon/wine/. They're based on RedHat latest (20020605), so the upgrade should go pretty smoothly.
