[TESTCASE] Install wine1.4. See comment #13 [Regression Potential] gettext was never needed for Wine's installed binaries, so none is forseen [Other Info] This may be a workaround to a bug in apt, as it seems to have a logical failure here since it is failing to install due to a package listed only in Recommends. Fixing apt would be more risky. [ORIGINAL REPORT] I simply checked for updates and hit the update button. After some time this error appeared.
