Title: Lite Software Error during Wine installation
Post by: Acer5745G on March 28, 2021, 04:49:18 PM

Hello,
Several days ago I installed Wine on LL 5.2 using Settings->Lite Software, and then I  installed a DWG viewer via Wine. Both installations finished without any problems, but I didn’t like the DWG viewer, so I uninstalled it from Wine. Then I used Settings->Lite Software to uninstall Wine as well.

When I tried couple of days later to install Wine again using Settings->Lite Software, the installation stopped instantly with the message:

Lite Software Error:
- Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
- Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet and try again.

After a search on the net I tried the following commands:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get purge wine*
sudo apt-get install -f
Then I tried to install Wine again, but the installation ended with the same Lite Software Error message.

I am unsure how to proceed and I would appreciate any advice on the Wine installation.
