Title explains it all

icy heath
#

try the candidate it mentions there

#

wine-stable

#

also check for WINE in Discover

lost python
lost python
icy heath
#

did u happen to add a wine repo perhaps?

lost python
#

ya

icy heath
#

yeah so, it seems that the system is getting confused

lost python
#

dam

icy heath
#

it's trying to get wine from the ubuntu repo AND that is saying "use these depenencies" and at the same time, it's trying to get a variant from the hq repo, and that's telling it, well im newer, use "these" dependencies.

#

impossible situation

lost python
#

so what do i do?

icy heath
#

remove the hq repo

lost python
#

how do i do that 💀

icy heath
#

then do sudo apt update

#

one way that I know of is using synaptic pakage manager

#

install that from Discover

lost python
#

aight

icy heath
#

i dont think neon ships with it like Mint does

lost python
#

what do i search for?

icy heath
#

nothing yet. go in its settings menu

lost python
#

oh

icy heath
#

then repositories

lost python
icy heath
#

top

lost python
#

then?

icy heath
#

scroll list of repos and uncheck the hq one

lost python
icy heath
#

yep

lost python
#

done

icy heath
#

next click the big reload button

lost python
#

yea

icy heath
#

that's like "apt update"

lost python
#

also i am getting this problem but it aint related to wine

#

lets do this later

icy heath
#

ignore that next, search

lost python
#

we focus on wine

icy heath
#

wine

lost python
icy heath
#

find the exact name match, then r-click it

#

mark for install

lost python
icy heath
#

it'll add its deps

#

yes

lost python
icy heath
#

once marked click the apply button

#

in the warning box read it well

#

it will state what precisely it will pull in

lost python
icy heath
#

and how much data space will be taken up

#

yep

lost python
#

now what?

icy heath
#

then click apply and wait

lost python
#

is it installed?

lost python
icy heath
#

did synaptic finish?

lost python
#

yeah

icy heath
#

u must close it before doing anything in terminal

lost python
icy heath
#

then get that thing it says about wine32

icy heath
#

ur probably gonna run into the repo conflict again if ur reenable it

#

or ask windows addict

#

if he can come here n take a look

lost python
#

well hot dam

icy heath
#

had u installed any wine stuff before all this?

#

if so, need to purge

lost python
#

nope, this buggy mess all happened randomly

#

how about i just purge anything wine related?

icy heath
#

hang on

#

which is the broken package?

lost python
#

winehq-stable

icy heath
#

does it say?

lost python
#

the newer version

lost python
icy heath
#

oh so,one sec

#

sudo apt purge winehq-stable

#

then, sudo apt clean && sudo apt autoclean && sudo apt autoremove

lost python
icy heath
lost python
#

i already uninstalled the old wine version

icy heath
#

and then if needed, install wine32 as it wants

lost python
#

well i want to install the newer version

#

which is winehq-stable

icy heath
#

k

#

open synaptic again

lost python
#

aight

icy heath
#

search wine

#

anything green with wine in the main name, mark for complete removal

#

(same as purge)

#

then ask windows addict

lost python
#

nothing is green

#

@cobalt fulcrum sir can you help with me problem 🙏

#

i cant install winehq-stable

icy heath
#

i mean conceivably, u could deactivate the ubuntu repos

#

temporarily

#

and enable the hq repo

#

and attempt to install it

lost python
#

anything ubuntu related?

icy heath
#

but u'll need to flip that off later , they cant both coexist or else ur gonna have terrible update messages in future

lost python
#

man what in the actual fuck is going on at this point 😭

#

this is a fresh neon install

icy heath
#

idk how it works with mint. could be cuz its using the ubuntu 24 base

#

thus u got a newer wine version with it maybe, but idk what u previously did

lost python
#

i guess amma stay with old wine until windows addict come

icy heath
#

ok

#

this is dangerous territory when adding foreign repos.

#

sorry i cant help u further

lost python
icy heath
#

w means warning. as long as it doesnt say E for error

#

idk what it's about. way beyond me these signing keys

lost python
#

aight

icy heath
#

i guess u could read man apt-key and see what the deprecation section mentions

#

or apt-key --help

lost python
icy heath
#

just ignore it.

#

i installed spotify deb from official site and never bothered with that gpg crap registering

lost python
#

ok, amma just wait for windows addict then

lost python
#

wiat

#

i think i fixed it

#

I FIXED IT

#

FINALLY

icy heath
#

i see. good job on the reading

lost python
#

had to switc the last number from 22.02.0-2ubuntu0.1 to 22.02.0-2ubuntu0.5

icy heath
#

so u have latest wine now?

lost python
#

ye

#

[SOLVED] Cant install wine on kde neon

cobalt fulcrum
#

after getting winehq wine
run winecfg and it makes the prefix

#

apt wine is usually just jammy rn so you default at wine v6.0 which is like 3 years old

#

misc about wine <#💬general message>

icy heath
#

he got it sorted somehow;

cobalt fulcrum
#

reason i keep saying for staging
