I would suggest you to install packages through default Package Manager, Synaptic ( GUI )or apt-get ( Command Line ).

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine

Btw, which Linux distro are you using?

Welcome aboard!

Looks like nothing more than a dependency issue. Have you tried to install with apt-get? If so, any errors?

[Onsight]

Yup Errors While Using Apt-Get As Usual, Pulling My Hair Out! Using Debian If It Helps

Execute this

su -
apt-get clean all
apt-get remove wine
exit
cd ~
rm -rf .wine
su -
apt-get install wine

In any command throws error, copy/paste error message here instead of posting screenshot.
