Package managers don't install from source, (actually, I'm not sure if this is always true, there's some option to compile the source once you download the package at least in Ubuntu, but I never do it that way, nor figured out how it works) and while I'm not entirely sure what you mean by custom, I use the make install straight from the wineinstall script included with every source package.
