A quick Google gave me http://wiki.winehq.org/Mono, which says: I’m expecting that Wine 1.5.6 will install Wine Mono automatically as needed. It will search for the MSI in the following locations: * The Unix directory stored in the “MonoCabDir” value at HKCU\Software\Wine\Dotnet. * /usr/share/wine/mono, or possibly some substitution for /usr if Wine was installed to a different location. * wine_build_directory/../mono, if Wine is being run from a build tree. * Download from http://source.winehq.org/winemono.php?v=0.0.4 Note that “as needed”. If you don’t run any .NET applications, then this document implies that yes, it is quite possible not to have Mono on your system with Wine. So I tried it. I installed wine-core.i686, wine-wow.i686, and ran the Windows Firefox installer. It prompted me: Wine cannot find a Mono package which is needed for .NET applications to work correctly. Wine can automatically download and install it for you. Note: it is recommended to use your distribution’s packages instead. See http://wiki.winehq.org/Mono for detail and gave me “Cancel” and “Install” buttons. Clicking “Cancel” got me to a similar Gecko prompt. Clicking Cancel to that started the Firefox installer (instantly: no pauses for downloads), and if it *has* downloaded Mono, I’ve no idea where it put it.
