Jamming Jellyfish Ubuntu Wine install not working, HELP!!!

Post by smoomster »

I'm trying to install wine on Jamming Jellyfish Ubuntu and it is coming up with this error message

winehq-staging
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
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-staging : Depends: wine-staging (= 9.7~mantic-1)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


I'm not sure what to do and I've never used Linux before someone please help :cry:

Why are you trying to install packages for mantic if you are on jammy?

Assuming you really are on jammy, it looks like you added the wrong sources file. Delete the one for mantic and add the one for jammy. Follow the instructions on https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu.
