Or they come here to find out we only have 'older' versions of wine on this site, and always use the Ubuntu package. Or maybe they even have to adjust the repository, because the package manager would think 1.2 is the newest, and not the current beta. So I think it makes no sense at all. But this is a bit off-topic...
