carla-single can't find wine64 in Debian #1859

Debian doesn't have wine64 in the $PATH and starts wine from a script /usr/bin/wine-stable automatically selecting between 32- and 64-bit versions, depending on what is installed, so both 32- and 64-bit executables can be launched with wine <*.exe>. While carla-single attempts to load a win64 plug-in with carla-single win64 [...] it can't find the wine64 executable and fails with FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory.

Sure, it's more of a Debian issue, but still trying to load a damn .dll for an hour, specifying its path in every possible variation, and still getting "no such file" is frustrating af. By the error message it's impossible to understand that it's wine it can't find, not a .dll.
