    Did you enable the universe repository, where Wine is located? – Artur Meinild May 09 '23 at 08:55
  • no i didnt, im gonna try it. Thanks – Tahir Dev May 09 '23 at 08:56
  • https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/wine will show you it's found in 'universe' (community supported), which is enabled by default for flavors, but not main Ubuntu ('universe' has lower security & varying support duration) – guiverc May 09 '23 at 08:56
  • It did not download some of the files, plus it still doesnt work – Tahir Dev May 09 '23 at 08:57
  • "Doesn't work" isn't nearly good enough for any serious troubleshooting. Did you run sudo apt update first? Also please include ALL commands you ran and ALL output error messages in your question. Thanks. – Artur Meinild May 09 '23 at 08:59
  • Ok ill try all of the possible things to make it work. Thanks – Tahir Dev May 09 '23 at 09:00

  • is az.archive.ubuntu.com Down? – Tahir Dev May 09 '23 at 09:09
  • So it would seem - try another mirror instead. – Artur Meinild May 09 '23 at 09:13
  • whats a mirror? – Tahir Dev May 09 '23 at 09:14
  • If you're having troubles with a mirror, select another - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors (You're not using the Ubuntu archive site; you'd not have the az. in your URL if you were), but one provided by mirror.datacenter.az – guiverc May 09 '23 at 09:15
