Title:
  ubuntu-wine packages display poorly in update-manager

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Wine updates are not displayed properly in update-manager.  Instead of
  appearing together in an easily identifiable group, I see the
  following problems:

  - The software group is called "Browse C: Drive", which is a bizarre
  thing to see in a software updates list and doesn't indicate that it's
  referring to Wine at all.

  - The main Wine package (wine1.7 in my case) is shown beneath the
  group heading as another copy of the string "Browse C: Drive", which
  is equally confusing.

  - The wine1.7-amd64 package appears within the software group, but the
  wine1.7-i386 package does not.  Instead, the latter shows up all on
  its own, apart from its amd64 counterpart.  This makes them look
  unrelated, which is misleading, and seems to encourage users to
  upgrade one without the other.

  I'm using the ubuntu-wine PPA on Xubuntu Raring amd64.
