Problem Installing Wine in Ubuntu Studio 20.04

Question

Trying to install Wine on Ubuntu Studio 20.04. Gets to about 50%,and then displays two errors. I've tried a few times. This is what I'm getting:

E: Could not configure libc6:i386.

Also receiving this:

E:Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libgcc-s1:i386'. 
Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)

I've searched other questions/answers, but I'm not finding this issue. Again, I'm brand new to Ubuntu, and am thankful for any guidance.

What command did you run to install Wine ? I just want to replicate your situation to get more info.Please add it to your question — Parsa Mousavi, May 30 '20 at 15:33

Try the following commands:

sudo apt install -f  
sudo apt autoremove  
sudo apt install libc6-dev  
sudo apt update  
sudo apt upgrade  
sudo apt install wine64 wine32

Thanks for the help... I got all the way to install lib6-dev, and I get a return of "unable to locate package lib6-dev"... where might I go from there? – chris-rain May 30 '20 at 14:38

I had same error message installing Wine in docker container using the following command.

$ install -y --install-recommends winehq-stable;

Workaround described here worked for me.

$ install -y -o APT::Immediate-Configure=0 --install-recommends \
        winehq-stable;
