From your log:

Code: Select all

  Could not handshake: Error in the pull function. [IP: 151.101.194.217 443]
That's the same error posted in viewtopic.php?f=11&t=33749, which was due to a corrupt mirror.

Try downloading the packages manually and installing them locally.

I notice that all your stock Debian repositories don't use TLS/SSL ...
So this looks like: Why is there no https transport for debian apt tool?

Basically you should just try following the recommended answer:
You need to install the package apt-transport-https

okay, i'll try tomorrow, it's late here
btw, won't that break anything because winehq wine is much newer than stock repo wine? or it'll figure things out automatically

Unfortunately a corrupt mirror isn't something we can fix ourselves; we can only report it to Fastly and hope they fix it.
