Cannot install staging on Xubuntu

[CyborgParadox]

I was wanting to install wine staging on xubuntu and I was thinking I could just follow the directions for ubuntu since its xubuntu. But I seem to be getting an error saying "Unable to locate package winehq-staging" I'm thinking its probably just something I'm doing wrong.

Yeah, probably...

What's the output from:

Code: Select all

grep -R 'wine' /etc/apt/*

lsb_release --all

after doing lsb_release --all, I get this

But I did actually need the output from the grep command...
If there is simply no output - then you have no WineHQ PPA(s) enabled.

Well, it seems to be working now, I didn't do anything different, just tried it again a third time, maybe it was a typo, I dont know what the issue was but it seems to be fixed now
