Usually it is not required. The i386 is supposed to be enabled by
default on all (desktop) Ubuntu amd64 systems. There are a few
reports that certain install methods are not doing that, but otherwise
it is fine for most.

This bug tracks enabling multiarch for packages in the
depends/recommends tree of wine. That is not related to the issue you
are experiencing.
If you do not have i386 repositories enabled, that is a
misconfiguration of your system. Wine is not going to be installable
on pure amd64, that would be a return to the chaos before multiarch.
If you continue to have issues, I recommend you seek help on a support
forum. See <http://www.ubuntu.com/support/>. If that process
identifies an actual bug, then please file a new report.
