Wine Stable install on Linux Mint 19.3 Gives Error

[Wirezfree]

Hello,

I have tried to install the latest stable version following another thread on the forum

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo apt-key add winehq.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

The final step gives an error:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 winehq-stable : Depends: wine-stable (= 4.0.3~bionic)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

System:

Desktop: Cinnamon 4.4.5 Distro: Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia

Please can anybody provide guidance on this..

Many Thanks & Regards

This worked for me...

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo apt-key add winehq.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
winecfg

Thanks

This is crazy....

No solution yet!

In those days when W7 is dying the best alternative refuses installing wine!

Have you tried compiling from source? It isn't nearly as hard as people think. Take it from me, I learned how to install wine-staging from source on a distro that has some old libraries.

I should also add, that there are a few more steps for installing wine-staging.

As for wine-stable, unzip,
./configure
make && sudo make install

usually work. But it does take an hour unless... you do make -j2 or make -j3

the more cores you have in your processor the higher the number after j can be. But never make the number higher than the number of cores in your processor.

Building from source like this will give you an almost unusable Wine64 only installation.

Could you confirm you have installed the libfaudio0 packages:

Code: Select all

apt-cache policy libfaudio0 libfaudio0:i386

If you haven't you can download them from:
https://download.opensuse.org/repositor ... _amd64.deb
https://download.opensuse.org/repositor ... c_i386.deb
and install them with dpkg

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg -i libfaudio0_19.07-0~bionic_amd64.deb libfaudio0_19.07-0~bionic_i386.deb
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

If you are still unable to install Wine, could you post the output of:

Code: Select all

apt-cache policy

Does the following solution work:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libgnutls30:i386 libldap-2.4-2:i386 libgpg-error0:i386 libxml2:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386 libsdl2-2.0-0:i386 libfreetype6:i386 libdbus-1-3:i386 libsqlite3-0:i386

I was also getting the dependencies error but after installing the libfaudio0 packages posted by jkfloris I ran a Wine 5.0 install with no errors. Before the install I removed all wine references from my several previous attempts to install:

- created a timeshift snapshot
- in software manager removed wine
- sudo apt remove winehq-stable wine-stable wine1.6 wine-mono wine-geco winetricks [just in case]
- in software sources removed cybermax-dexter ppa’s and any wine refs
- deleted all .wine folders

Installed with:

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo dpkg -i libfaudio0_19.07-0~bionic_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libfaudio0_19.07-0~bionic_i386.deb
sudo apt-get update
apt-cache policy libfaudio0 libfaudio0:i386

There were some messages not shown here but no errors.

Then ran winecfg which showed a lot of messages that I'm not sure about. I would like to know if I can ignore the following messages or if there is any action to take:

Could you confirm you have installed the libfaudio0 packages:

If you haven't you can download them from:

and install them with dpkg

Code: Select all

december 2020 here:
I installed LM 19.3 few days ago after having troubles with LM 20.
When I tried to install Wine (following the wiki steps, I got the missing packages errors).
I only did what jkfloris wrote in the quoted message and Wine got installed and my Windows software is running without problems.
Thank you, jkfloris!
