Unable to locate package winehq-stable

[NicoRadioactive]

Hello, I am trying to install Wine stable on a newly installed Ubuntu 24.04. This is a fresh install and Wine is the first program I am trying to install. I am following the WineHQ instructions to install on Ubuntu and I am getting E: Unable to locate package winehq-stable.

Am I doing something wrong or is wine stable not available yet on Ubuntu 24.04? I have it installed on my Ubuntu 22.04 on another partition. Wine Development can be found and installed. Thanks

There are no stable packages for 24.04 yet because 24.04 was not released when 9.0 came out. There will be stable packages whenever 9.0.1 comes out. There are winehq-devel and winehq-staging packages.

Thanks for the info, I installed Wine Development and it seems to work just as good or better.
