Update crashed wine at all

Post by Lost »

Long story short - I'm trying to uninstall broken wine after failed update. I've some problems with broken packages - it gives something like "out of incoming" - I use spanish distribution of OS. So for that reason I'm unable to run wine correctly. After aparenting correct instalation wine doesn't run, because wine32 I'm not able to install.

What I need is delete everything related with wine and try installing from zero. All related stuff seen at a lot of sites was useless.

I've ubuntu 20.04

There are two ways to install Wine on Ubuntu.
Use the Ubuntu Wine packages or use the WineHQ packages

Code: Select all

Ubuntu:                            WineHQ:
------------                       ---------------
wine                               winehq-stable
wine64                             wine-stable
wine32                             wine-stable-amd64
libwine                            wine-stable-i386
libwine:i386
wine64-preloader
wine32-preloader
fonts-wine
wine-binfmt
Make sure you have removed the packages from the one before installing the other.
An easy way to see which Wine packages are installed is:

Code: Select all

dpkg -l | grep wine
