Bug Description
I'm running Kubuntu AMD64 (upgraded from 6.10 online).
To reproduce do the following:
1) Open System Settings
2) Switch to Advanced tab
3) click Windows applications icon
4) try to follow actions offered by this applet to enable wine on system iwthout wine installed.
Result:
While icon is here this does not works.
Applet will offer to add repository, etc.This fails since there is no wine in repository for AMD64 systems
Expected:
Ideally there should be wine for AMD64 :) (unofficial port exists).Is this is too hard, why there is need to have applet which fails to operate properly anyway?

There is wine for amd64 in gutsy, so this should no longer be a problem. However there may still be a bug launching it on amd64 with wine installed, see bug 151982.
