Dependency problem installing winehq in ubuntu 17.10

[Joe82]

Hi everybody, I am trying to install winehq-stable on ubuntu 17.10

When trying to install winehq-stable the output is

Code: Select all

winehq-stable : Depends: wine-stable (= 3.0.0~artful)

Trying wine-stable

Code: Select all

wine-stable : Depends: wine-stable-i386 (= 3.0.0~artful)

Trying wine-stable-i386

Code: Select all

Depends: libgphoto2-6:i386 (>= 2.5.10)

Trying libgphoto2-6:i386

Code: Select all

libgphoto2-6:i386 : Depends: libgd3:i386 (>= 2.1.0~alpha~)

Trying libgd3:i386

libgd3:i386 : Depends: libfontconfig1:i386 (>= 2.11.94)

Trying libfontconfig1:i386

libfontconfig1:i386 : Depends: fontconfig-config:i386 (= 2.11.94-0ubuntu2)

...and then, trying to install fontconfig-config:i386, it says fontconfig-config is already the most up to date version (2.12.6-0.1)

I've tried downloading installing fontconfig-config:i386, but the output is still the same. I've also tried installing with aptitude, but the output is the same.

Any help will be appreciated on how to solve this dependency hell. Thanks!

@Joe82

Have you first added multilib support to your package manager with:

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

Yep, I added it before trying to install.

The 64bits fontconfig-config has to be the same version as the 32bit version.
Version 2.11.94-0ubuntu2 is in Ubuntu 17.10
Version 2.12.6-0ubuntu1 is in Ubuntu bionic

So you have to downgrade the 64bits package from 2.12 to 2.11
or try to force the 32bits package to 2.12, but maybe this will result in a dependency hell

Tried this

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install fontconfig-config=2.11.94-0ubuntu2

And here is the output

Code: Select all

Following packages have unmet dependencies:

libtheora0 : Depends: libcairo2 (>= 1.2.4) but it is not going to be installed 

 E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

Also checked out my libcairo2 package version:

Code: Select all

libcairo2 is the most recent version (1.14.10-1ubuntu1) 

So still stuck in the same point

Did you remove any previously installed Wine packages that aren't from WineHQ, and all packages that depend on them (e.g., wine-mono, wine-gecko, winetricks)? If not, you need to, as they can cause dependency conflicts.

It is a SO fresh install, so it any other version of wine had been installed. Just in case I did an

apt-get remove --purge wine*

But nothing was installed.

Ok then - it's time to get back to basics

What's the output from:

Code: Select all

grep wine -R /etc/apt/sources.list*

awk '{ if ($1 == "deb") print $3 }' /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*

lsb_release -a

Please can you just use forum Code:

tags for terminal output and commands...
A jumble of Quote and Code tags - for terminal output/commands - just gets annoying... Very quickly...

Sorry I see I confused tags twice :S

Do you have any other packages installed from the bionic or a non-artful repo?

Code: Select all

apt-show-versions | grep "No available version in archive"

This is a Debian package not an Ubuntu one. (!?) Why did you installed a Debian package?

It seems it was installed with java-7 (I had to install java-7 as I need it for a project)

Hey Im struggling with a similar issue getting wine to run on Ubuntu 17.10

Code: Select all

~/Downloads/metalign_041012$ wine ms.exe
0009:err:module:import_dll Library FSLCGCwin32.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\cocopalacelove\\Downloads\\metalign_041012\\ms.exe") not found
0009:err:module:import_dll Library netcdf.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\cocopalacelove\\Downloads\\metalign_041012\\ms.exe") not found
0009:err:module:attach_dlls Importing dlls for L"Z:\\home\\cocopalacelove\\Downloads\\metalign_041012\\ms.exe" failed, status c0000135

However, after inspecting ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32$, to make sure I was actually missing said dependencies, it found both, FSLCGCwin32.dll and netcdf.dll are in this directory.

I'm assuming wine is struggling to located the .dll files or it may be due to the location of my metAlign directory (~/Downloads/metalign_041012) , any thoughts?

Your problem isn't remotely the same, as the Thread OP's repository issues...
Please don't Thread Hijack... Just start a new one.

When you do start a new thread... Please remember to mention what version of Wine you are using!

Thanks
