[pkg-wine-party] Bug#714556: wine-bin-unstable: failed to update wineprefix, wine.inf: no such file or directory

The problem is that the path that wine is trying to use to access wine.inf
is wrong.

Wine is trying to access the file:

/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine-unstable/wine/../share/wine-unstable/wine.inf

for which the path can be shortened to:

/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine-unstable/share/wine-unstable/wine.inf

Which doesn't exist.  The path should be:

/usr/share/wine-unstable/wine.inf

or:

/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine-unstable/wine/../../../../share/wine-unstable/wine.inf

Until the wine maintainers get a new package uploaded with a fix, the
problem can be worked around by placing a symlink to /usr/share
in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine-unstable/wine/
