I presume that you have already opened Synaptic
and enabled in the menu Settings/Repositories all available
software sources including universe and multiverse.
After enabling them Reload is necessary.
Searching for Wine shows "wine" and "wine1.2" in the list.
"wine" is version 1.0.1 , probably the valid stable version.
"wine1.2" is version 1.0.31 , probably the latest version,
which probably is a so-called unstable version, which is
usually working allright, but has no guarantee to be stable yet.
You can try both versions, the newer one will be supporting
more program functions in specific programs, but is not necessary
better for a certain windows application, it may even be vice versa
for some.
Synaptic will install other .deb files additionally, among them
wine-gecko as well. For wine1.2 about 35 Mb will be downloaded.
Do not forget that K-Meleon will need msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll
inside the K-Meleon main folder to work in Linux. You can find 
them in your Windows or download them from the internet.
Put K-Meleon into a folder where you have all user rights to
read, write and execute. The profile will be created in the 
configuration folder ".wine" inside your home directory 
or inside the K-Meleon main folder, depending on your choice,
where it should be created.
