The build instructions are recycled from my 1.5-series instructions -- the 1.5 series is the development version and Wine 1.6 is the new stable release, and so Wine 1.5.31 and 1.6-rc1 should be pretty similar. As a release candidate (rc) 1.6-rc1 isn't meant for production work. For that, use Wine 1.4 which is the current stable series.
Here's a link to the release announcement: http://www.winehq.org/announce/1.6-rc1
See here for information about 3D acceleration using libGL/U with Wine: http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2013/05/429-briefly-wine-libglliubglu-blender.html
Getting started:
If you set up a e.g. chroot to build 1.5.28 or before or 1.5.31 (1.5.30 had a bug which needed patching), you don't need to set up a new chroot to build 1.6-rc1. In that case, skip the set-up step below and instead re-enter your existing chroot like this:
sudo mount -o bind /proc wine32/proc sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf wine32/etc/resolv.conf sudo chroot wine32 su sandbox
cd ~/tmp
And skip to 'Building wine'.
Otherwise do this:
Setting up the Chroot
sudo apt-get install debootstrap mkdir $HOME/tmp/architectures/wine32 -p cd $HOME/tmp/architectures sudo debootstrap --arch i386 wheezy $HOME/tmp/architectures/wine32 http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ sudo mount -o bind /proc wine32/proc sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf wine32/etc/resolv.conf sudo chroot wine32
You're now in the chroot:
apt-get update apt-get install locales sudo vim echo 'export LC_ALL="C"'>>/etc/bash.bashrc echo 'export LANG="C"'>>/etc/bash.bashrc echo '127.0.0.1 localhost beryllium' >> /etc/hosts source /etc/bash.bashrc adduser sandbox usermod -g sudo sandbox echo 'Defaults !tty_tickets' >> /etc/sudoers su sandbox cd ~/
Replace 'beryllium' with the name your host system (it's just to suppress error messages)
Building Wine
While still in the chroot, continue (the i386 is ok; don't worry about it -- you don't actually need it):

Installing Wine
Exit the chroot
sandbox@beryllium:~/tmp/wine-1.6-rc1$ exit exit root@beryllium:/# exit exit me@beryllium:~/tmp/architectures$
On your host system
Enable multiarch* and install ia32-libs, since you've built a proper 32 bit binary:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
*At some point I think ia32-libs may be replaced by proper multiarch packages, but maybe not. So we're kind of doing both here.
Copy the .deb package and install it
sudo cp wine32/home/sandbox/tmp/wine-1.6-rc1/wine_1.6-rc1-1_i386.deb . sudo chown $USER wine_1.6-rc1-1_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i wine_1.6-rc1-1_i386.deb
