Bug ID: 57997 Summary: Upgrade to winehq-devel 10.3 from winehq-devel 9.x causes creates a broken install on Debian Bookworm.

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.)
