Hi
I tried to install WINE using
Apt-get install wine
But it didn't work. Terminal reported:
root@RaySiduxbox:/home/Ray# apt-get install wine
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
wine: Depends: libldap2 (>= 2.1.17-1) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
What did I do wrong and how do I fix it? I'd really appreciate simple step-by-step advice on how to fix this and what these messages mean. I'm a new user, resolved to learning sidux, so please mercifully answer my sometimes-elementary questions! |

| Have you done
Code:
apt-get update
before?
This is important to make sure your local package database is in sync with the online repository. |

Logon as root....use your root password
In Terminal Window type (while connected - internet)
$apt-get update
$apt-get install wine-bin
$apt-get install wine-doc
$apt-get install wine-print
$apt-get install libwine-gl
$exit
$which wine
will show the location where wine was installed.
Note:
After I install the first program, and Wine handles the install properly,
I just go to the subdirectory of the next software package I want
to install, move the mouse cursor over the windows_prg.exe file,
then right click and "run with wine". Works perfect!
