you could download VLC from synaptic packagemanager. Which gives you all poss. dependec.
there is also a VLC ppa source on launchpad to download the newest VLC version.

You can do this for installing both of these softwares:
sudo apt-get install vlc wine
Put this command into the terminal, which you can find Applications ->
Accessories -> Terminal.
Other than that, next time you want to install a .deb, go the the
terminal and do this:
sudo dpkg -i package_name
