With the recent deprecation of the wine64 binary, upgrading winehq 64bit
packages on Debian fails due to the attempt to overwrite the
/opt/wine-{variant}/bin/wine file.

That file is owned by the 32bit package, but the 64bit one is now attempting to
overwrite it. Causing a dpkg failure, and breaking the installation.

My 0.02 cents: One fix may be just to use wine's version number in the install
prefix and then simply select the most recent version as the default through
the alternatives system. (Which would also allow concurrent installation of
multiple versions of wine for easier regression testing, and is similar to what
Proton allows for.)

E.x. /opt/wine-10.3-devel/bin/wine 

Another fix would be to have a seperate tools package that contains the wine
loader for the given host arch. (Which seems to be more inline with what the
deprecation was trying to achieve.)

Uninstall 9.x before installing 10.3.
