Please update your question with output of sudo dpkg -l | grep '^.[^i]' . You have broken packages, which needs to be fixed before you can install any package. — rusty, Feb 01 '24 at 12:40
Also provide information about the current kernel in use with uname -r . — rusty, Feb 01 '24 at 12:55
@VanessaFoht Please [edit] your question with the output of grep -i 'wine' -r /etc/apt; ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d; apt-mark showhold; apt-cache policy winehq-stable wine-stable — Daniel T, Feb 01 '24 at 13:20
Are the broken packages preventing you from installing any new packages to your system, using apt or synaptic, etc.? Or is it just wine? — rusty, Feb 01 '24 at 13:23
@rusty I assume not because according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta-hwe-6.5 , 6.5.0.15.15~22.04.8 was released a week ago. With the computer upgraded successful last week, and wine 9.0.0.0~jammy-1 released before that, I find that unlikely, but I edited my answer with an apt upgrade — Daniel T, Feb 01 '24 at 13:33
@VanessaFoht can you install sudo apt install synaptic , a GUI package manager for .deb packages? — rusty, Feb 01 '24 at 13:38
@VanessaFoht If you are not comfortable with the command line, you can try Alternative 02 in my answer. See if that works. If apt fails to install any app, you need to try the Alternative 01. — rusty, Feb 01 '24 at 13:58
For some just a single command can fix it: sudo apt-get --fix-broken install — rusty, Feb 02 '24 at 01:50

This is caused by an incompatible previous installation of wine. Reinstall your desired version:

apt-mark showhold. If this returns any output, do sudo apt-mark unhold <name>
Disable every PPA except the winehq-jammy.sources one by moving their files away from /etc/apt/sources.list.d
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386, in case you forgot to do so while following WineHQ's instructions
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get purge 'wine*' 'wine*:i386' This line will do the trick. Make sure to read everything below the "The following packages will be REMOVED" line and cancel if it wants to remove something you want.
sudo apt autopurge. If it wants to remove something you want, cancel, and do sudo apt install <name>, then try again
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo apt install wine-stable:i386
sudo apt install wine-stable
sudo apt install winehq-stable
sudo apt install winehq-stable --install-recommends

Also ensure that you did not pin any repositories in /etc/apt/preferences.d

Alternatively, try:

sudo apt install --install-recommends wine-stable-i386:i386
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

what you mean by apt problems and how to fix them? – Vanessa Foht Feb 01 '24 at 13:07
apt problems just means when your apt commands are giving you errors. To fix them, does following my steps work? If not, what is the error? – Daniel T Feb 01 '24 at 13:08
Followed all the instructions, didn't help( – Vanessa Foht Feb 01 '24 at 13:16
After following all the instructions, the error remains – Vanessa Foht Feb 01 '24 at 13:38
@VanessaFoht I added an alternative, as well as added to the original. If that doesn't work, you could try replying to the forum thread at https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=38435 or follow rusty's answer or rusty's comment – Daniel T Feb 01 '24 at 13:40

UPDATE: (solution)

I had the exact same issue on three different systems, all running Ubuntu 22.04.03, and none of the suggestions here helped. What I did find to work however, is aptitude.

sudo apt install aptitude

sudo aptitude install winehq-stable

select no to first suggestion to "do nothing", accept 2nd suggestions.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not @OrganicMarble, but in this case, it sure was :) — kennethx, Feb 05 '24 at 15:50
No, not sarcastic. aptitude has saved me many times. But this seems like a whole new level of awesome. — Organic Marble, Feb 05 '24 at 16:09
Good, hopefully it will solve OP Vanessas' issue as well. I believe it will, since I had the exact same error message. — kennethx, Feb 06 '24 at 07:57
Didn't work for me. Aptitude didn't list proposals for correction. Returned "No solution found within the allotted time." after several restarts. — Apogentus, Mar 03 '24 at 15:12

Alternative 01:

The output of sudo dpkg -l | grep '^.[^i]' shows you can remove the following packages as done with dpkg --remove ... (these were listed rc). (There is a description at: How to interpret the status of dpkg (–list))

sudo dpkg --remove --force-all fuse ntfs-3g steam-launcher virtualbox xdg-desktop-portal linux-image-6.2.0-26-generic linux-modules-6.2.0-26-generic linux-modules-extra-6.2.0-26-generic linux-modules-nvidia-535-6.2.0-26-generic linux-modules-nvidia-535-6.2.0-39-generic linux-objects-nvidia-535-6.2.0-26-generic linux-objects-nvidia-535-6.2.0-39-generic
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get --fix-broken install

Now verify that you have the following packages:

apt-cache policy fuse ntfs-3g steam-launcher virtualbox xdg-desktop-portal

If, you don't have them, you can install with:

sudo apt install fuse ntfs-3g steam-launcher virtualbox xdg-desktop-portal

Now you should also be able to install any other programs. e.g. wine with:

sudo apt install wine

Alternative 02:

Install synaptic package manager with:

sudo apt install synaptic

Launch Synaptic Package Manager and go to Custom Filters -> Broken, a list of broken packages will be listed. You need to select them in the checkbox and mark them for removal. And apply the changes. The GUI application will handle the broken packages for you.
