Follow-up:

Joep, Colin, Nils et al: here is the message that I get from
update-manager whenever there is a Wine (in this case 1.7 from ppa) update:

An error occured, please run Package Manager from the right-click menu
or apt-get in a terminal to see what is wrong.
The error message was: 'Unknown Error: '<class 'KeyError'>' ("The cache
has no package named 'wine1.7-i386'")'. This usually means
that your installed packages have unmet dependencies.

And of course I do have that package installed:

$ dpkg -l | grep wine1.7

$ apt-cache policy wine1.7-i386
wine1.7-i386:i386:
  Installed: 1:1.7.26-0ubuntu1~ppa1

 *** 1:1.7.26-0ubuntu1~ppa1 0

And the update actually works just fine (as usual), so maybe an
udate-manager bug:

So Joep, if you get the same on this Wine update, just go ahead and
upgrade & it should work.
