So after a fresh Scientific Linux 6.3 Desktop install, I:

yum install rpmforge-release && yum update

and

yum install epel-release.noarch

then:

yum install wine gparted cups-pdf && echo 'includepkgs=nss-mdns wine*
gparted cups-pdf' >> /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo

OK! After this I:

vi /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
includepkgs=nss-mdns wine* gparted cups-pdf

So this is how I install a fresh wine (+cups-pdf) and gparted.

*Q*: Is this a stable thing to do? I mean can this cause problems in the
future? (that there are some epel packages installed, but I use a whitelist
after installing the mentioned few packages to help stability - because I
only need epel for the few things gparted/wine/cups-pdf). Will these stepes
cause problems in the future?
