Hi Thomas. The line has a typo, and should be.
deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/     (space between / and binary)
Be prepared to be dropped by the server. I regularly have to remake the 
connection about 10 times on dialup to get the update, at about 1MB at a 
time.  

Someone has set up anew apt repo for wine updates, but only at the moment for 
ubuntu breezy. He said he is working on making packages available for Sarge. 
I forget which listed he posted to, but keep your eyes open on the Wine, and 
LAU lists.
