There are many wine packages in AUR and many of them are fairly old
and/or obsolete, too.
I'd like to clean that up. Here are the candidates:
dwarffortress-wine (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=36202)
Reason: Old version, no maintainer, no need (dwarffortress is in
community/multilib)
kwine (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=6498)
Reason: Extremely old (2007), obsolete, dead upstream
wine-chs (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17914)
Reason: Very old wine version, unmaintained
wine-dib (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31499)
Reason: Old wine version and apparently the maintainer is uninterested
wine-starcraft (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41819)
Reason: Very old wine, unnecessary patch and apparently the maintainer
is uninterested
wine-suse (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37839)
Reason: Unmaintained, bin32-wine-suse exists and is maintained
wine-doors-svn (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11849)
Reason: Unmaintained, dead upstream, dead source
wine-doors (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11823)
Reason: Very old, dead upstream, dead source
wine-forgames (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45631)
Reason: Old, doesn't explain its purpose, seems to be a clone of
wine-lol (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39529)
winetools (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8913)
Reason: Very old, dead upstream, dead source, obsolete (now in
winetricks and other helpers)
wuninst-git (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18868)
Reason: Very old, dead upstream, obsolete (now in wine)
wisotool (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37824)
Reason: Old, obsolete (now in winetricks)
wisotool-svn (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37825)
Reason: Obsolete (now in winetricks)
winegame-t (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37830)
Reason: Unmaintained, old, dead upstream
winefix (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17459)
Reason: Very old, unmaintained, apparently dead upstream
Thoughts?

Don't they still work? Are there alternatives to these two?

Neither is makeable. wine-doors misses source and its functionality now
mostly exists in winetricks. kwine requires kwine-base which doesn't
even exist. Also, KDE integration with wine is already a given anyway.
