I have found wine software in Ubuntu software Software, but the rating is low. Is it good or is there any source or command to install wine?

It works. WineHQ recommend doing installs their way.

Wine software is more trouble than it's worth. It's very finicky, and requires a lot of manual tweaking to get many software apps to run.

If you're interested in running Windows apps on Ubuntu, a much more reliable and pleasant experience can be had by installing Virtualbox, and then installing a real Windows guest OS into Virtualbox. See https://www.virtualbox.org/ for more information about Virtualbox.

  • I agree 100 % with your advice, however, it is not really an answer as the OP wishes to install wine. Wine works well with simple programs – Panther Nov 08 '17 at 14:34
  • @Panther The OP asks the question "Is it (Wine) good"? My answer directly addresses that question :-) – heynnema Nov 08 '17 at 14:41
  • OK, thanks for the answer. I am NOT downvoting (FWIW), just commenting. – Panther Nov 08 '17 at 14:44
