Im trying to install Wine on a fresh installation of Ubuntu 23.04 but im having trouble with wine32.

$ sudo apt install wine

The regular continue question says that wine 32 is a recommended package. Installation completes with no warnings.

$ wine

Gives response: it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it. as root, please execute "apt-get install wine32:i386" Usage: wine PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS...] Run the specified program wine --help Display this help and exit wine --version Output version information and exit"

sudo apt install wine32

Gives response: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done 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: init : PreDepends: systemd-sysv E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

$ sudo apt install wine'tab-tab'

wine32 doesnt show up in the list.

$apt search --names-only wine32

wine32 is found in the repository.

I have already enabled i386 and also tried to fallow the installation instructions on wineHQ webpage with no better luck.

Does anyone know what could be the problem and how to fix it?

Did you try to do exactly what the error message said? "... as root, please execute `apt-get install wine32:i386`"

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.
