Wine 1.7 Missing Dependencies on Ubuntu 15.10

[masternetra]

Using Gnome Ubuntu 15.10 Beta, which has been performing beautifully for me thus far, and was trying to install Wine 1.7 (first then the AMD 64bit version, which is the one I really should be installing from the beginning), but it seems there are missing dependencies. The error from the amd verison (only one that prompted any real details really). Error Report:

Code: Select all

wine1.7-amd64:
 Depends: libgphoto2-port10 (>=2.5.2) but it is not installable
 Depends: libopencl-1.1-1
 Depends: ocl-icd-libopencl1 but it is not going to be installed or
	libopencl1
 Depends: wine1.7:any (= 1:1.7.44-0ubuntu1)
 Recommends: libcapi20-3 but it is not going to be installed
 Recommends: libgnutls26  but it is not installable
 Recommends: libosmesa6 but it is not going to be installed
 Recommends: unixodbc
 Recommends: wine-gecko2.34  but it is not installable
 Recommends: wine-mono4.5.4  but it is not installable

Anyone know how I can get this to scott richie and/or of a ppa or something that can resolve this?

There's an email link for Scott on https://www.winehq.org/download/.

Thanks, I did realize that after making the post, but sense it was awaiting approval couldn't really update it.

Still hasn't written back and Wine in the repo still at 1.7.44 with the same issues, hope he's alright.

The Ubuntu maintainers are no longer active. The plan is for WineHQ to eventually build Ubuntu packages, but I don't know how long it will take before that is up and running.

Scott Richie Kinda is, he updated gecko which is at least part of the reason for depenency problem. Though wine itself hasn't been updated sense before August.

So, at this point in time, we're basically scr*wed?

Code: Select all

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

wine1.7: Depends: wine1.7-amd64 (= 1:1.7.44-0ubuntu1) but 1:1.7.44-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
         Depends: wine1.7-i386 (= 1:1.7.44-0ubuntu1) but it is a virtual package

Disappointing.

You could try using wine-staging. I believe they are building packages for Ubuntu.
