Bug description:
  [IMPACT]

  This bug can make Wine uninstallable in some cases.

  [TESTCASE]

  Install wine1.4.  See comment #13

  [Regression Potential]

  gettext was never needed for Wine's installed binaries, so none is
  forseen

  [Other Info]
   
  This may be a workaround to a bug in apt, as it seems to have a logical failure here since it is failing to install due to a package listed only in Recommends.  Fixing apt would be more risky.

  [ORIGINAL REPORT]

  I simply checked for updates and hit the update button. After some
  time this error appeared.
