Wine Staging 1.9.6 is the latest development build. But, at the same time, you can have both Wine Staging and regular Wine on the same system. The reason is : Wine Staging is a special version of Wine that provides support for projects like Pipelight. The Pipelight developer forked wine into wine-staging and included some Pipelight-specific enhancements and some other features not present in the regular wine software.
To have Wine Staging installed in MintPup :
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipelight/stable
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install --install-recommends wine-staging
You can add this PPA, update, install, then create a SFS with remastercow.
