WINE install on SparkyLinux fails

[skris88]

Hi,

I just installed SparkyLinux overnight but having issues trying to install WINE. Below are my terminal entries and responses (from info I found on another topic here that is closed). What can I do to resolve this? Thanks!

It looks like you downloaded the wrong WineHQ repository file.
Remove "winehq-kinetic.sources" from "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/" and download the Debian bullseye file

Code: Select all

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq-kinetic.sources
sudo wget -NP /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/dists/bullseye/winehq-bullseye.sources

# and try again
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
