Also, because you compiled it from source, please don't use the package manager for that application anymore. If you do, you'll screw things up because your package manager will try to install its own version of Wine over your self-compiled version. The package manager only has 1.1.23 because there are people behind your distro who compile the package for you. These people sometimes don't make new versions for a while until there have been enough changes for them to accept, or when there's a stable, tested release of the application, or when a new version of their distro comes out.
