I am installing a newer version of Wine by compiling from source, and then will use checkinstall to create a deb package, and then install it from the deb file by dpkg.

At the same time I would like to remove the old version of wine to reclaim the space.

i worry about software dependency problem. How can I install the newer version and remove the older one safely?
