Your kernel probably does not support binfmt-misc .

binfmt-misc is support in the kernel for using basically any binary
(executable) format using an external intereter. Wine can thus be used
to execute directly win32 executables.

If the error bothers you:
update-binfmts is part of a separate debian package (update-binfmts ?)
that includes some scripts to allow programs to register themselves as
hadlers for such executable formats. Remove this package (IIRC wine
recommends it, but does not depend on it) then this error should be
gone)
