I get the same error. It's also a problem because it's needed when
installing the wine packages, and since it doesn't install like it
should, all of wine has to be removed before other transactions can
happen. So I end up removing them, installing what I need and
reinstalling them or else I can't run the couple of programs I need wine
for.
I've even tried forcing it to install, but it won't even under pressure.
