Hmm, wine depends on libwine and recommends wine-utils. Since most people install "recommends" as well (aptitude does this), what would be those "many other packages" that are essential for a full featured wine? Maybe it's not clear to the Debian packager that they should be in "recommends" or at least "suggests".
