If you'd like to try rebuilding the Ubuntu package from source, please follow the instructions here: http://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu If building from vanilla source fixes the problem, but rebuilding the package from source doesn't, then we have a packaging issue.
Looks like it's the problem with the package. As reported in the bug 18813 the package doesn't ship/install wine.inf.
