This has been bugging me, but now I have finally figured out how I
likely came to the wrong conclusion on the version.  apt-cache show
winehq-staging shows every version in reverse order from 2.10 to 2.4,
and those first results must have scrolled off the screen.
Conclusion, always pipe apt-cache show results to "less".  :-)
