Uncomment following lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list and it may be different if you are in different country instead of UK
For Ubuntu Dapper Users
deb http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe
deb-src http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe
For Ubuntu Edgy Eft Users
deb http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy universe
deb-src http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy universe
Add WineHQ APT Repository
or
If you want to add source packages from the repository
Currently, wine only have i386 binary packages available. If you do not use an i386 architecture, or wish to compile the package in a special or optimized way, you can build the wine package using the source repository instead. To do this, add a source repository with one of the following:
For Ubuntu Dapper Users
deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main
deb-src http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main
For Ubuntu Edgy Eft Users
deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt edgy main
deb-src http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt edgy main
