I think we need a HOWTO for this, it's going to become common. WINEPREFIX should be an absolute path pointing to a subdirectory of the user's home directory named after the product, and starting with a dot. You should put wine into /opt/productname/wine, and your product into /opt/productname/ Then put a symlink in /usr/bin pointing to the script in /opt/productname that starts the app. Go install Picasa and see how they did it. Navicat is another app that does this; I don't think they did as nice a job, but maybe their script is easier to read for starters.
