[pkg-wine-party] Bug#671760: wine-bin: should have some sort of dependency relationship with libwine-gecko-unstable

Package: wine-bin
Version: 1.2.2-0.1
Severity: normal

wine-bin >= 1.2-0.1 contains a symlink to wine_gecko-1.0.0-x86.cab from
libwine-gecko-unstable. To make that symlink have something at the other
end, it should Depends: libwine-gecko-unstable (or maybe just Recommends:
or Suggests:, but Wine upstream apparently consider Wine without Gecko to
be unsupported).

I actually think it would be better to have the package name being
depended on be libwine-gecko(-unstable)-1.0.0 or something, for reasons
similar to the Policy-mandated name libfoo5 for the package containing
libfoo.so.5: the "ABI" provided by the package is that it contains
/usr/share/wine-unstable/gecko/wine_gecko-1.0.0-x86.cab.
When Wine 1.4 is packaged, according to <http://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko>
it will want wine_gecko-1.4-x86.msi, with intermediate versions variously
using versions "1.1.0", "1.2.0", "1.3" and either .cab or .msi.
