WineHQ error and PlayOnLinux

[theawesomerb]

Hi,

First of all , i'd like to say thank you for those who are keeping this wonderfull OS, this is my first day on linux and i LOVE it ! , however , since i'm a noob i made a mess and i dont know how to clean it.

here is the situation , i made a fresh install of Mint 19 and i installed PlayOnLinux , then i figured out that using WineHQ is better to run a game (world of tanks) , sinice when i use playonlinux it hangs on installing IE8 and loops forever.

so when i try to install Wine using these commands :

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key 
sudo apt-key add Release.key
sudo apt-add-repository https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable

it shows me this (its in french , means that the package has a problem with the dependencies :

Code: Select all

Les paquets suivants contiennent des dépendances non satisfaites :
 winehq-stable : Dépend: wine-stable (= 3.0.4~cosmic)
E: Impossible de corriger les problèmes, des paquets défectueux sont en mode « garder en l'état ».

and also when i try to use PlayOnLinux the update center shows this :



thank you very much

I am not a wine user, so if there are any other specific problems with the installation, I am afraid I can't be of much help. However, looking at the commands you have posted, it looks that you forgot to update the cache before installing the software.
Run

Code: Select all

sudo apt update

before

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable

Hope this helps!

Edit: You have two lines withsudo apt-add-repository... where only one, that withbionic main at the end, would be needed for LM 19. Remove the other one in Software Sources: Additional Repositories

HI , thank you for your reply ,

i tried the update but nothing has changed;

Alternatively, how can i clean all this mess and repeat the installation properly ??!

, Thanks

This is to stretch of my knowledge, but you could open the application Software Sources from the menu and under the tab "Additional repositories, remove all the references to wine and reload the cache once again. Next you could run the following commands one by one (from:https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu):

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key 
sudo apt-key add Release.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable

from:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine
Before using Wine, it is necessary to create the fake C: drive where your Windows applications will be installed. To do this, enter the following command into the terminal: You may find the terminal by going to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal

winecfg

You also have the option of configuring Wine via the Configure Wine option in the Applications-> Wine menu.

This will create a hidden folder (.wine) in your home directory containing the fake C: drive as well as registry files similar to those used in Windows. Once this directory is created, the Wine Configuration Window will appear. This window will allow you to customize a variety of settings for Wine, including which Windows Version that is emulated, drive mappings, DLL overrides, as well as application specific settings. Click the Ok button to close the window.

Hope this helps!

Honestly, I am not sure where to go from here. I think these two:

Code: Select all

wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key 
sudo apt-key add Release.key

should have taken care of the public key problem. I will investigate a bit further.
Most probably those forum members who do use Wine will come along with further suggestions.

[philotux]

Try this:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 818A435C5FCBF54A

and

Code: Select all

sudo apt update

afterwards.

I tried , however nothing changed :'(

Did you also run

Code: Select all

 sudo apt update 

afterwards?
If nothing changed, I am at a loss.
