I meant I'll add to d/rules:
export VENDOR=$(shell dpkg-vendor --query Vendor && dpkg-parsechangelog -S Version)

and replace in version-string.patch (which applies to a Makefile) "Debian" with "$(VENDOR)".

Then "wine --version" should give something like these examples:
wine-1.8.2 (Debian 1.8.2-1)
wine-1.8.2 (Ubuntu 1.8.2-1)
wine-1.8.2 (Ubuntu 1.8.2-1ubuntu2)

I'd assume this is absolutely fine for Ubuntu, too. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I only use Debian, but want to have it right for Ubuntu, Debian and upstream.
This doesn't require to change anything, but imo gives the best information for e.g. bugreports filed at winehq.org (I don't want to encourage anyone to do this initially, but I assume that unfortunately some Debian and Ubuntu users just do this).
