Back when I was using Picasa on Slackware I used to install the Slackware version of Wine and then install a regular Windows version of Picasa on that. That worked much better, wine was updated when necessary and Picasa integrated much better into Wine. So, long story short, install Wine and get the last version of Picasa for Windows.
