I'm trying to install wine on Ubuntu 22.04. I followed the instructions here: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu. Here is what I tried:

Package libldap-2.4-2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  libldap-common

E: Package 'libldap-2.4-2' has no installation candidate

I already have libldap-common:

$ sudo apt install libldap-common

libldap-common is already the newest version (2.5.11+dfsg-1~exp1ubuntu3.1).
libldap-common set to manually installed.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Here are possible installation candidates I found using tab tab:

$ sudo apt install libldap
libldap-2.5-0      libldap-common     libldap-java       
libldap2-dev       libldap-dev        libldap-ocaml-dev

I already have libldap-2.5-0, but I don't know how to go down to libldap-2.4-2.

$ sudo apt install libldap-2.5-0

Reading state information... Done
libldap-2.5-0 is already the newest version (2.5.11+dfsg-1~exp1ubuntu3.1).

Can anyone help me download wine?

It stinks that Ubuntu 22.04 is stuck with the January 2021 release wine 6.0. You may need the newer WineHQ version for a number of different games.

Your system is missing 32-bit versions a number of common packages that wine requires. It normally should be missing these, but much Windows is still stuck in 32-bit land. Make sure that i386 is enabled, and you have the package entries.

dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt update

A documented issues on 22.04 is with KDE Neon the libpoppler-glib8 dependency is broken. The solution is sudo apt install libpoppler-glib8:{i386,amd64}=22.02.0-2ubuntu0.1. Other third-party repositories may be broken (usually by not supporting i386), but there are too many repos to go through them all.

WineHQ may have additional documented issues at a later point: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu
