when trying to install wine 5.0 which is the stable version the version installed in winehq-stable is 4.0.4.

Sounds like you are on Ubuntu 20.04. The stable branch typically has one maintenance release for the previous stable version a few weeks after a new version is released, and that was 4.0.4, released last week. Since Ubuntu 20.04 did not exist when 5.0 came out there are no 5.0 packages for it, and 4.0.4 is currently the only stable package in our focal repository. Whenever 5.0.1 comes out, packages for it will be added to our repository. The repository does contain packages for 5.7 for both the development and staging branches. But if you want to stick with the stable branch, the distro does have its own 5.0 packages. https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/wine

Thanks for the reply, I am on debian 10.
I add to the repository "deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositor ... /Debian_10 ./" and when installing winehq-stable I skipped 4.0.4, before I installed 5.0

So he asked if it was wrong or if it was okay.

Thanks and best regards.

Only use the OBS repository for FAudio. You should install Wine from dl.winehq.org, following the instructions on https://wiki.winehq.org/Debian. The OBS repository only has the last version of a package that was built, while the WIneHQ one has all the packages that have been built.
