Problem with installation of Wine

Post by GMBK7user »

Hello,

I am trying to install Wine by using the Linux mint installer on Mint 20.1. There are no previous versions of either Mint or Wine to complicate things.

I receive two error messages:

Could not configure libc6:i386
Could not perform immediate configuration on libgcc-s1:i386. Please see man 5 apt under APT::Immediate-configure for details..

I do not understand the messages so I am completely stuck. I have exited the installation process.

Could someone please help?

I was running the recommended command apt install wine-installer.

Try to install libc6:i386 by hand

Code: Select all

sudo apt install libc6:i386
