wine on lubuntu

ht flag

Can anyone send me a proper link to install and use wine on Lubuntu 22.04? I would prefer to install from synaptic or from a debina file, than terminal. There are so many ways to do it, and nothing works yet. I dont think it is the same to install on Ubuntu. Thank you.

What is your issue? A simple `sudo apt install winetricks` will install https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/winetricks That will install the same package as Ubuntu 22.04 installs, as both are Ubuntu systems using the same repositories.

Lubuntu uses a LXQt desktop, thus using `synaptic` (a GTK3 app) would be inefficient, thus why it includes [Muon Package Manager](https://manual.lubuntu.me/lts/4/4.2/muon.html) as well as Discover. I'd expect to see `winetricks` listed there too, but sorry I've not checked as I'm not running *jammy* (22.04) currently.

A simple

sudo apt install winetricks

will install https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/winetricks

or to install wine itself it's just

sudo apt install wine

which will install https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/wine

That will install the same package(s) as Ubuntu 22.04 installs, as both are Ubuntu systems using the same repositories.

Lubuntu is a community distribution of Ubuntu, thus comes by default with 'universe' enabled, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Desktop does not and requires 'universe' to be enabled, but both Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Lubuntu 22.04 LTS use the identical package from the same repository.

For more details on repositories, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu

FYI: I'm involved with the Lubuntu team, and as such am a Ubuntu member. Lubuntu is *official* Ubuntu and thus can only use packages found in Ubuntu repositories, we just use a different [seed](https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/lubuntu.jammy/desktop) which causes our ISO to include different packages, but all packages are from the same repositories as all Ubuntu systems are. Commands are thus the same with regards packaging.

Sorry, my wording on 'involved' with Lubuntu team & subsequently Ubuntu member was unfortunate.. A Lubuntu member will become a Ubuntu member, but not all involved with the Lubuntu team reach member status until after "*significant and sustained*" contributions are reached & thus membership attained by application. Personally I was Ubuntu member prior to becoming involved with Lubuntu & gaining Lubuntu member status, but if I'd not already a Ubuntu member, I would have become one then. My attempted point is Lubuntu & Ubuntu are both Ubuntu systems. I refer to my Lubuntu box as a Ubuntu box.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
