Bus Error : Need Help

[Idris]

I keep getting a problem a bus error when trying to install a software package

sudo apt-get install wine

I get: Bus error (core dumped). 0%

Ive tried another programe called scilab

I got the same error.

Im told that these kinds of errors are normally hardware problems but ive not got any hardware
problems from what I know everything has been running normally. Im not sure if running on a
persistent stick might be the issue.

Anyone have any ideas?

Does package manager throw same for every package or for just those two packages only?

Ubuntu had same problem a few years back and a bug was registered for that. Cleaning cache sorted out problem that time but it's not working this time.
