Bug Description

Since Ubuntu and Debian use different versioning numbers for some packages, Wine is not installabe on Debian systems through the PPA.
The issue is libpulse0, at version 1:0.99.1 on Ubuntu and 4.0-6+b1 on Debian. Wine requires this library to be >= 1:0.99.1, so the latter does not met the requisites. Changing the dependency to >= 1:0.99.1 | >= 0.99.1 should fix this, without any other issue (the other packages have the same names, and the binary runs just fine).
Could you consider doing so?

At this point we could just depend on libpulse0 as no supported version of Ubuntu has an older than 1:0.99.1 anyway.

And more to the point I believe apt considers epoch 1:* > anything without the epoch, so that or statement is basically equivalent to just >= 0.99.1.

This bug was fixed in the package wine1.6 - 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu6

---------------
wine1.6 (1:1.6.2-0ubuntu6) utopic; urgency=medium

  * Remove experimental pthread patch (causes regressions)
    - http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36772
    - http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36744
  * Actually apply the extraneously large buffer revert patch
    - Was somehow turned off in previous update
    - Reduces audio latency; upstream only increased buffer for non-linux drivers
  * Build-depend on ocl-icd-opencl-dev instead of its deps (LP: #1371196)
    - Remove direct build-depend on ocl-icd-libopencl1 and opencl-headers
  * Add Arabic and Japanese translations for the .desktop files (LP: #1320290)
    - Thank you Akira Nakagawa
  * Remove ocl-icd-libopencl1 from recommends (LP: #1313123, #1376587)
    - Spurious as there is an automatic dependency on it or its substitutes
    - Might fix some installability problems on proprietary drivers
  * Exclude libpulse0 from auto-dependency generation (LP: #1226314)
    - It correctly remains a recommends, as it is possible to run Wine without pulseaudio
    - debian/rules: exclude winepulse.drv.so from parsing by dh_shlibdeps
  * Import patch to mostly fix wine icon appearing instead of app icon (LP: #1103833)
    - Patch courtesy Michael Müller, possibly to be replaced by later patches
  * Downgrade winbind from Recommends to Suggests (LP: #302148)
