I've noticed on several occasions that I get a update error on the
indicator panel from the software update manager. Each time this has
happened it is a Wine update that seems to be stuck & it will prompt to
do a 'partial upgrade'. Once I've done this, the wine update seems to
work fine. Note: if I try it from the terminal or from Synaptic I'd get
dependency errors. Bit of a stretch, but check via update-manager:

$ update-manager

I'm off to work so I've not had time to replicate in a VM, but will try
to do so tomorrow.
