Just to jump in here- when I used Wheezy, the version of Wine was too old and that led to a long path toward installing a newer version of Wine. At the end of this path, I had totally blown away the version of libc that I needed and learned a very important lesson : Don't mix unstable with stable. Read https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian - this should help. I suggest if you need newer software that you use an unstable version of Debian. I believe some others in this thread have mentioned; I see this as the Debian way.
