I just submitted this to the Debian tracker system, thought it may be 
useful to echo here in-case anyone else is using x86_64 Debian as it 
seems since Julliard put in a patch just before .42 to check more 
completely for dependencies it now shows that Debian (64) actually lacks 
certain deps for Wine.

Package: wine
Version: All
Severity: important

Wine, when compiled from source (upstream source) shows that Debian is 
missing certain dependencies which cause loss of functionality in Wine 
on x86_64. These are libpng, libcups, libcapi20, libhal and openssl. 
This means that 32bit support packages need to be made for Debian for 
Wine to work properly (just like there is currently a lib32asound(-dev), 
etc to give ALSA support).
