FROM fedora
RUN useradd -U -m user; \
    dnf install -y wine; \
    dnf clean all; \
USER user
WORKDIR /home/user

Build a docker image called wine:3.0 with this Dockerfile

FROM fedora:26
RUN useradd -U -m user; \
    curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/winehq.repo https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/fedora/26/winehq.repo; \
    dnf install -y winehq-stable mesa-dri-drivers.x86_64 mesa-dri-drivers.i686 /usr/bin/ntlm_auth; \
    dnf clean all; \
    mkdir -p /opt/wine-stable/share/wine/mono /opt/wine-stable/share/wine/gecko; \
    curl -o /opt/wine-stable/share/wine/mono/wine-mono-4.7.1.msi -LJ https://dl.winehq.org/wine/wine-mono/4.7.1/wine-mono-4.7.1.msi; \

Typing characters succeeds with no problem

What does not

Installation fails with errors like "MSI extraction error" under wine:3.0, screen keeps black under wine:latest after installation

Additional Comments

Actually wine-3.0 and wine-3.4 are both used. Currently wine-3.4 is the latest release in Fedora's repo and wine-3.0 is the winehq-stable package in the repo of winehq.org

The OS running docker is Fedora 27
