Try renaming your wine directory from a console first so that it will be
recreated clean:

mv .wine .wine.old

If that doesn't work, try

sudo apt-get install --reinstall wine

Use Synaptic Package Manager. Remove not Complete Removal.
If you want to install an older version... http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/ubuntu/
