The "is not going to be installed" error message can sometimes be fixed by explicitly telling the package manager to install the package it's complaining about. Or at least, you can figure out why it's not doing so automatically.

I like to use the aptitude command. When it detects oddities and conflicts, it asks you what you want to do about it and presents a few solutions. What does "sudo aptitude install wine1.6" (or if you want to avoid making changes, "aptitude -s install wine1.6") give you?
