wine users - Mar 2010 - No such file or directory

Hello people.
I am using a Debian based distro, 64-bit.
I have instealled the 1.1.40 Lenny version of Wine, from your site.

But I can't start Wine at all. It gives the error.
> bash: /usr/bin/wine: No such file or directory
The executable file is there.

What is wrong and how can I fix it?

Many thanks.

I didn't find how to edit my previous post so...
Nothing seems to be wrong, here's the proof.

Has got nothing to do with path.
Same error if you try to run
$ /usr/bin/wine

Because Wine on 64 bit has major problems right now, like you cannot run your 32
bit Windows programs on it.

So, we have to build as a 32 bit program for now.  Yes, there is work to get the
64bit to 32bit Windows on Windows (WoW) working.

Hello James. I hope you people get the 64-bit version up and running soon.
Yet I need a solution for my current problem.
If this problem is because of Debian's 32-bit compatibility ... thing ...
then I'd rather bug them than you.

John, do you mean installing the DEB for i386?
I don't think that is even permitted by the package manager.

Can your distro run any 32-bit programs at all? If it can't - that's the
major problem with it.

I can run 32-bit apps fine.
Before I got Wine 1.1.40, I was happily running 1.1.27.

Just noticed this. I assume by "Debian-based" you mean "not
Debian." Using a package not meant for your distro could be the cause of
the problem. If there are no packages specifically for your distro, compile Wine
yourself.

OK this may sound strange, but do /proc and /sys need to be mounted in order for
Wine to install correctly?
Are there other operations during the installation of Wine, except the copying
of files, itself?
