I installed Wine from Synapitc Packet Manager on Ubuntu 7.10. Currently it's version 0.9.58, but I can't wait for binaries and want to compile and install version 0.9.59 from source. Will it break my current installation? Will my programs (Steam, Audiosur, Peggle Extreme) need to be removed and reinstalled? Also, it seems that Ubuntu repository servers are down now, because I can't connect to them or they have no valid data.

Then you will have old version installed and the new version compiled.
