Click the link.  More up-to-date (0.9.13) packages are available there,
and they're built for dapper and breezy (by me).

I'll be moving the 0.9.13 package into dapper within a week or so.  The
point, however, is that you can be running stable ubuntu (breezy or
dapper when it comes out) and still get the latest wine backported.
