Hello Folks,
Does anybody knows when will Wine be able to work on Ubuntu 18.04 (new release) ?
It won't install with instructions found at: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu
"The repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu bionic Release' does not have a Release file."
"Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default."
Thanks.

Short answer: whenever the package maintainers decided to start building packages for it. Hopefully that will be faster than the four months it took to start building for Fedora 27 after it was released.

You can hack your way around this (for now) by installing editing the /etc/apt/sources.list (sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list) file and changing:2600 wrote:Hello Folks,

Code: Select all
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main
Code: Select all
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ artful main
No guarantee everything will work, and i have not done extensive testing with this as i tend to compile my own version from source anyway. Atleast you can TRY this while waiting for the maintainers to make the bionic version
PS. If something does NOT work by doing this.. ie. dx11 game crash or whatever that used to work with 16.04 and whatnot, keep in mind this is NOT the "recommended way"

echo WINE FOR BIONIC?
w3m -dump "https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/dists"|grep bionic;\
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "no bionic release"; else echo "yippie bionic release arrived"; fi

Hi!
So this is my first post on this forum, and I found this post via a google search for wine in Ubuntu 18.04. I'm not sure how much help I can be, however, in the same google search I came across this other website which seems to indicate that there is a stable release for wine. Please note, however, I have not even attempted to try to install it as yet, far less try it out.
Link: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/amd ... 0-1ubuntu1
I would, however, love it if anyone who has attempted to use this, could give some feedback.

I have been trying to get Wine, PlayonLinux, really anything to work on Ubuntu 18.04. I have tried various YouTube videos, suggestions, coding, you name it. I'll give your link a try tomorrow and let you know if it works. I'm losing my mind. A month of nothing working.
