The first package refers to Debian testing or unstable, the second to Debian old-stable.

Don't mix different different Debian versions.

The first package refers to Debian testing or unstable, the second to Debian old-stable.

Don't mix different different Debian versions.

Is this true for winehq versions as well?

I'm using Debian 10 Buster (stable), successfully installed winehq-stable, uninstalled winehq-stable and triend to install -staging and -devel with similar outputs.

My assumption was that winehq-devel or staging rely on packages in staging/devel branches of Debian. Since I don't want to mix releases and want to remain on the stable branch, I don't want to modify my sources.list. I successfully reinstalled winhq-stable, but am still struggling with my application (I will create a new post for that question).

You should have, in /etc/apt/sources.list or in a file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ an entry for wine.

You'll want to find that and change 'stretch' to 'buster', then do an 'apt update' and try installing again. (It's also possible to use 'stable' which shouldn't cause problems...)

"stable" "devel" and "staging" are wine terminology for phases in wine development, not distros. It's possible to install any or all three if you want, just using the wine-stable / wine-devel / wine-staging package. The winehq-* packages install links in /usr/ making whichever one (only one) you install the default. The others can still be accessed under /opt/.

Hopefully that helps and I haven't confused you further.
