Sounds it's coming from the ebuild running `eselect wine unset --all` which normally "should" work. Unfortunately the old eselect-wine had horrible states that could easily break, and in this situation it may need manual intervention. Does it work if you try to run that command manually? Ultimately you just need to get rid of it (links and all of /etc/eselect/wine), then the ebuild for eselect-wine-2 won't have to try to clean up the mess.
Thanks for your response! Indeed that command is the culprit. Running it manually results in the same error: $ eselect wine unset --all !!! Error: Missing listing of man symlinks exiting rm -r /etc/eselect/wine fixed the problem.
Cool, hopefully nothing else it left behind (e.g. links in /usr/bin). The new eselect-wine-2 no longer creates orphaned files all over the place (/only/ in /etc/eselect/wine which is easy to track), and auto-detects installed wines rather than have register them, so there's no real "states" that can end up messed up. Loosely marking CANTFIX given I don't have a real ebuild solution to old eselect-wine acting up, worst case it needs a manual cleanup.
