--- Comment #1 from Sebastian Lackner sebastian@fds-team.de --- Winetricks is an unrelated third party project. The PPA you are talking about is exclusively used for WineHQ software, which means it wouldn't really fit in there.
To get more up-todate versions of winetricks, you can either use unofficial repositories, for example: https://launchpad.net/~pipelight/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+packages
Or alternatively, just use the builtin auto-update functionality recently merged into winetricks.
