Months ago I tried to install wine and since then, whenever I try to install something, anything, I get this error. I tried to uninstall wine but, unfortunately whenever I try to uninstall it I also get this error. I have too many back up to take and set up, so I can't just do a clean Ubuntu install right now but as you might guess, this has been very difficult for me! practically making it impossible to use my machine.

This is the error I get:

   wine32:i386 : Depends: libwine:i386 (= 3.0-1ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
     wine64 : Depends: libwine (= 3.0-1ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed

I did read some comments on repositories, and these are the ones I can see in the list that mentions wine:

/etc/apt/sources.list:deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main
/etc/apt/sources.list:# deb-src https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-wine-ubuntu-ppa-xenial.list.save:# deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu bionic main # disabled on upgrade to bionic

Some has advised to remove these but I am not sure if I need to go for all? I have many other packages as well, do I remove xenial?? not remove xenial??. Also, I am not sure how to delete them as I can't install synaptic package manager and the like due to the error mentioned above just as any other package.

How can I fix this? I do not wish to keep wine at all, I just want to fix this issue -------------------------EDIT---------------------------------------------

    OK, let's start from the beginning - add the output of the following commands - grep -r ^deb /etc/apt/ --include="*.list , apt-cache policy wine32:i386 libwine:i386 wine64 libwine , dpkg -l | grep -i wine to the question. – N0rbert Jul 8 '20 at 20:13
  • Hi, thanks, I edited to add the outputs to the comments. – dusa Jul 8 '20 at 20:20

    Do you really need Wine? Do you plan to use it? – N0rbert Jul 8 '20 at 20:29

    No, not at all, I just want the errors gone. – dusa Jul 8 '20 at 20:31

I would recommend to remove Wine repository with:

sudo add-apt-repository -r "deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main"

and remove related packages with low-level commands

sudo dpkg -P --force-all wine1.6
sudo dpkg -P --force-all wine1.8 
sudo dpkg -P --force-all wine1.8-amd64
sudo dpkg -P --force-all wine1.8-i386:i386

and normal high-level commands:

sudo apt-get purge q4wine wine-stable wine32:i386 wine64 winetricks
