Hi. I've got the same thing. Just to test, I scrubbed and re-installed Lubuntu, then contacted the wine ppa package manager to see if wine was involved. He showed me that the ppa had all necessary packages and that, I was not, in fact, trying to install from the ppa but from the main repository. (Neither approach works.) Sudo apt-get install wine produces the information that wine1.6 and wine1.7 cannot be installed.
sudo apt-get install wine1.6 Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: wine1.6 : Depends: wine1.6-amd64 (= 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu5) Depends: wine1.6-i386 (= 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu5) E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. So I looked at the package lists and it appears that wine1.6-i386 is not there. But I know that it is??? I thought that adding 386 capability from the command line would help, but it did not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1349006 Title: wine was removed in last update and cannot be re-installed.
