Cool! While you're at it could you please combine them altogether so the packaging matches the upstream sources? Last time I checked the Debian packages were split into tons of little packages which is wrong and led to strange breakages. Just one package with everything installed by "make install" in the sources would be great.
Having lots of packages is the Debian way. So I see nothing wrong with having wine, libwine, libwine-dev, wine-doc, libwine-alsa, libwine-arts, libwine-capi, libwine-cil, libwine-jack, libwine-nas, libwine-twain.
To those surprised by the -(alsa,arts,...) packages, this matches the xmms-(alsa,arts,...) packages. So there's nothing exceptional here.
I'm not sure about libwine-print. It pretty much only contains wineps.dll. I guess this is partly because of the CUPS dependency.
Also the wine-util package contains tools that I think belong to libwine-dev, especially winedbg, winedump and winemaker.
