Why have you set the source package to firefox? The source package is clearly wine as this is what the question is about.....

anyway,

if you hit alt+f2 and type
uninstaller

you can uninstall any program you have installed.

if you mean wine itself:

sudo apt-get --purge remove wine; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; rm -rf ~/.wine

will completely uninstall wine as well as get rid of ALL wine apps and ALL configurations for the current user.

If this is not what you want then DO NOT run that command.
