From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Edit: explicitly downgrading to 10.1 with

sudo apt install wine-staging=10.1~focal-1 wine-staging-amd64=10.1~focal-1 wine-staging-i386:i386=10.1~focal-1 winehq-staging=10.1~focal-1

worked for me, but see other solutions posted below.

Thank you for the help!


On Ubuntu, the last apt upgrade of Wine broke down, bringing down the whole apt system:

The following packages have unmet dependencies. wine-staging : Depends: wine-staging-amd64 (= 10.2~focal-2) but 10.2~focal-1 is installed

At the suggestion of running sudo apt --fix-broken install, this is what happens:

Unpacking wine-staging-amd64 (10.2~focal-2) over (10.2~focal-1) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/wine-staging-amd64_10.2~focal-2_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/opt/wine-staging/bin/wine', which is also in package wine-staging-i386:i386 10.2~focal-2 dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/wine-staging-amd64_10.2~focal-2_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Apparently this is also happening on Linux Mint: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=441158

Any suggestions? Cheers!
