    Try installing wine by using Yast. Using other methods will simply confuse you. Note that what you got was not an error. it is a warning and simply tells you that the a signing key is not present. no big deal if you got the file from a trusted site. But I must repeat use Yast to install software. The Suse repositories have most software that you could want or need. The only time to install via any other method is if the package you want is not in the repositories.

    wouldn't the wine-1.1.6-1.1.src.rpm be used to compile the wine source code to an installable rpm package

    you will have to install rpmbuild

    Download the wine-1.1.6.tar.bz2-file (the same version as the src.rpm), copy it to /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/, compile the library using rpmbuild --rebuild wine*.src.rpm. The final RPM's you can find in /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i586/ you can install it like every other RPM.
    or like gogalthorp said use yast
