There's not much the package manager does in ~ (and hence, ~/.wine)
and I *think* wine doesn't (and in my opinion should not) have a
system-wide software directory.
Therefore I believe that these concepts can't be used with each other.
The other things that come to mind about this is that Windows isn't an
*operating* system and Wine is not an emulator...

cheers!
