I believe, for simular reasons as Mono is important, Novell should be working with Wine as much as possible... I certainly believe this should be installed by default for desktop users.

In KDE, Wine applications are added as expected to the menu under Category "Wine". In GNOME however, it never adds this menu item.

Hello Francis,

the preferred joice of software differs from user to user. Novell expresses its joice for Mono because they're putting a lot of work into it ;) Sorry to say that, but I don't think it makes sense that we try to change that here. Morover: If you select the right package group Wine should be installed as well. A `one for all'-standard package selection will never satisfy at least the most of (the more experienced) users. But everyone is free to make his own choices. I'll close this bug therefore after making it an enhancement. Hope you understand.

Michael
