Wine Ubuntu 20.04 broken packages

[makors]

Hello,
I have been trying to install Wine during the last 5 hours in Ubuntu 20.04 and it just seems impossible. I have reviewed maybe one hundred treads on the issue, nothing works. Broken packages all over. Is there any way to install it? I am considering upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04 if that version is compatible with Wine.

This is what I have tried, plus many other combinations:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo mkdir -pm755 /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/winehq-archive.key https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo wget -nc -P /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubunt ... al.sources
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
sudo apt install --install-recommends wine-devel-i386:i386

I just installed Ubuntu 22.04 and managed to install Wine without a problem, using the official instructions.

It looks like you followed the correct steps. Unfortunately, without the output of these steps, it is impossible to tell what is going wrong.

Can you post the output of:

Code: Select all

apt policy
# and
sudo apt install --install-recommends wine-stable-i386:i386

Thank you very much for your reply and recommendation. Now, I cannot reproduce the output of those commands as I have upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04 and install went without a problem. The issue with Ubuntu 20.04 was quite the typical one, the whole internet was full of that problem with some missing/broken packages when installing Wine. This forum itself had 3-4 issues like this in first page on this board.
