I have tried to install Wine on to my Oracle Linux by using apt-get install wine, but it didn't work.
I have tried this as normal user but it was showing this error:
bash: apt-get: command not found.
I also tried as root with sudo apt-get install wine. It, too, throws an error:
ksai is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
I added that user to sudoers using visudo as follows:
ksai ALL=(ALL) ALL**
It was of no use. How to make the installation work?
Oracle Linux doesn't use apt(apt is for debian or debian forks), it uses yum or dnf because yum is deprecated(added note in the botton).
to install wine you should use the folowing command:

NOTE about
dnf: i've only tested in Fedora 22, i hearddnfstill experimental and is not crossing another distributions.
Different Linux distributions different ways to install new packages. 'apt-get' is a command used by the Advanced Packaging Tool (APT) mostly used by Debian and its derivatives.
Oracle Linux seems to use the RPM Package Manager, so you have to use that to install wine.
