I tried to install wine version 2.0.1 by following the steps listed on https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu. As I executed sudo apt-get update in the terminal it returned as

 ~$ sudo apt-get update

 Reading package lists... Done
 N: Ignoring file '20auto-upgrades.ucf-old' in directory '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
 W: Failed to fetch https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/dists/xenial/InRelease  Could not resolve host: dl.winehq.org
 W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/InRelease  Temporary failure resolving 'dl.google.com'
 W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Now there is a term in the 4th entry that states that Could not resolve host: dl.winehq.org which may be related to the repository of Wine. I am now concerned that this may affect the installation process of Wine. What should I do?

  • I've searched through the internet and found that it was a problem with my connection downloading repositories. The mirror that I have been into cannot access wine and google. Clicking the "Select Best Server" in the list of servers doesn't seem to help me. Any other ideas? – jokeyx10 Jun 02 '17 at 00:44
  • Can I just download the .deb package of wine then install it to my computer manually? – jokeyx10 Jun 02 '17 at 01:02

I solved it by changing to my nearest mirror server (Philippines).

It didn't download the Chrome repositories but it downloaded the Wine so I did

sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-staging

For the first time it failed at 97% because of some missing packages but I just repeated my command then it installed Wine.

Hope it helps to whoever needs it.

To solve this problem just add the package: apt-transport-https

sudo apt install apt-transport-https
