Public bug reported:

Using Trusty with the wine stable ppa:
ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa

apt-get installing wine-gecko2.40 will install only the x64 binaries; we can 
see this in the directory where the .msi files go:
$ ll /usr/share/wine/gecko/ | grep 2.40
-rw-r--r-- 1 root 33056768 Aug 25 07:36 wine_gecko-2.40-x86_64.msi

Note that this happens even if the following is set before attempting the 
install.
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

While this can be fixed with the following two post-install steps, it's a bit 
of a kludge:
$ sudo wget http://dl.winehq.org/wine/wine-gecko/2.40//wine_gecko-2.40-x86.msi
$ sudo mv wine_gecko-2.40-x86.msi /usr/share/wine/gecko/ 

Unless there's a better command to run to install both like how
g++-multilib does it, this seems like an omission.

Thanks a lot for your time.
