This ends up with:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  ia32-libwine: Depends: xlibmesa3-gl which is a virtual package. or
                         ia32-libgl1 which is a virtual package.
which does not seem to want to resolve...  here is what I added:
wine
libncurses5
libxi6
libwine

Suspect that one of these libs might need some help.
