I have downloaded wine-1.3.13.tar.bz2

How to install it ?

I have no internet connection. so I want to install it manually.

thats probably the source tarball for Wine, and will need to be compiled. doesn't it have a README and/or INSTALL file inside the tar ?

But, rather than compiling, there are RPM's for wine built for el4,5,6 on rpmforge.

Beware that RPMforge contains the stable releases (1.2.2) and the RPMforge testing repository is at 1.3.7, but I am doing a 1.3.17 build right now.

Often the latest development release have a better success rate than the stable release, but if you are unsure, download both and test your use-case with both toroughly :)
