Wine 7 on Linux Mint (Uma)

Post by freedifyy »

Does Wine 7 work on Linux MInt 20.2 (Uma) ?

Thats what i got .. :

Code: Select all

sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-devel
[sudo] password for chef:             
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-devel : Depends: wine-devel (= 7.6~impish-1)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Any help ?

You're trying to install the wrong version; Mint 20.x is based on focal, not impish.

Obviously focal. Follow the instructions in https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu. If you added the impish repository you will have to delete it.
