Title:
  Installing Wine offers to add useless launcher to panel

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “wine1.2” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Installing Wine in Oneiric presents a checkbox to add Wine's .desktop
  launcher to the panel.

  However, this .desktop file is actually useless as a launcher - it's
  added solely to open other types of files, since Wine is not an
  application that you open by itself.  Software center needs a
  mechanism for having this option be overridden.
