I'd like to propose to call nobody an idiot here and stay lower-case.
Makes much more fun then.


I'm a bit at a loss between:

"wine doesn't run at all" (although you got at least the hint to use
kfreebsd-i386),

no mention of wine32 being installed in your first mail (should be done
automatically, at least if it is installed,

and your report where you only cited the wrapper script and broken
symlinks (btw. that paragraph took me quite some time until I figured
what was citation and what was yours).



The output of
  dpkg -l "*wine*"
might help to show what is installed actually (post with the description
removed for easier reading).


Thus having said, the problem might be that both wine and the target of
the symlinks (wine-wrapper) are only in the i386 packages (yet, this
means if you were told to add the arch by wine, then wine-wrapper should
have been installed already, thus no broken links). See:
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/kfreebsd-amd64/wine/filelist
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/kfreebsd-i386/wine/filelist

So replacing wine:kfreebsd-amd64 with wine:kfreebsd-i386 might do the
trick. Please report back.
