Well.. then make opengl a wine requirement... or build two packages: 
wine with and without opengl.. (after all there are --with-opengl and 
--without-opengl configure options)
I personally would vore for the first option, make opengl a wine 
requirement, we'll soon have opengl integrated into the xserver (Xgl 
etc.) so sooner or later everyone will need to have an opengl 
implementation installed.

opengl should be installed per default on all desktop boxes (at least 
through mesa in pure-GPL duistributions that don't want to have any 
proprietary binaries)..
