Perhaps you installed an incompatlble version to your distribution. Remove it and try this procedure. I think it's the best way to install anything if you have Ubuntu.
Make sure to get these line uncommented in your /etc/apt/sources.list file.
Code:
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe
Open terminal and type the following command
Code:
sudo apt-get install wine
Please let me know if it works for you.
