Wine install error

Question

I used the command

apt-get install wine-stable

to install wine. But i am getting errors as follows:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
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:
 wine-stable : Depends: wine-stable-i386 (= 5.0.0~bionic)
               Depends: wine-stable-amd64 (= 5.0.0~bionic) but it is not going to be installed

@GeorgeUdosen I am not getting the previous error anymore, however I am still unable to install wine — MANOJKUMAR, May 18 '20 at 07:35
Please don't change the question once an issue is resolved. Consider appending the errors you're getting now. W: Target Packages.... and dependency issues are two different errors. What is the output of apt-cache policy wine-stable? — Kulfy, May 18 '20 at 08:11
wine-stable: Installed: (none) 3.0.4~bionic 500 500 http://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages 3.0.4~artful 500 500 http://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu artful/main amd64 Packages 3.0.3~bionic 500 500 http://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages 3.0.3~artful 500 500 http://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu artful/main amd64 Packages 3.0.2~bionic 500 500 http://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages — MANOJKUMAR, May 18 '20 at 08:14
You have package conflicts since you have 17.10 and 18.04's repository configured for WINE. Consider deleting/commenting the entry for artful. Moreover the PPAs which produces 404 error doesn't really have release files for bionic (18.04). Consider deleting them too. — Kulfy, May 18 '20 at 08:21
@Kulfy I am a new Ubuntu user. Can you tell me how to do that ? — MANOJKUMAR, May 18 '20 at 10:06

Enable 32-bit arch sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 and update
If problem persists and apt complains for missing dependencies, apt install wine-stable-i386 or wine-stable-amd64 depending on your architecture

Edit: as for those ppas, i would purge them since they are not available for your version

sudo ppa-purge ppa:ppa_name/ppa

or

sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:whatever/ppa

Yes I did add the repository. The broken packages error still exist. – MANOJKUMAR May 18 '20 at 07:38
hmm, try sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable – drxjason May 18 '20 at 07:39
No, The error still persists. Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree
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.

Yes this is correct answer and don't forget to apt update after you added the new arch – JoKeR May 18 '20 at 08:09
There seems to be an error even when updating... – MANOJKUMAR May 18 '20 at 08:17
terminal output please? – drxjason May 18 '20 at 08:18
Note: ppa-purge isn't pre-installed. – Kulfy May 18 '20 at 08:26
install ppa-purge – drxjason May 18 '20 at 08:27
@LynkzGames the terminal output has been added to the question – MANOJKUMAR May 18 '20 at 10:08
