According to that page, it should be rated as high importance.

* Has a severe impact on a small portion of Ubuntu users (estimated)
Yes, all users who wants to use fglrx and wine.
* A problem with an essential hardware component (disk controller, built-in networking, video card, keyboard, mouse)
Yes, package conflict for the video card driver.
* Prevents the application or any dependencies from functioning correctly at all
Yes, both wine and fglrx.
* Renders essential features or functionality of the application or dependencies broken or ineffective
Yes, both wine and fglrx.
* Impacts accessibility of a core application 
Yes, fglrx.

You can't even get build-dep for wine.

Nevertheless, fixing this bug should be done before the final release of
Ubuntu 14.10. If it can not be fixed easily, it would be better to
remove the conflicting dependency from wine. Only a few users would be
effected and they can fix it themselves by installing the necessary
packages manually.
