Cannot Install wine in Ubuntu 9.04

[Bracken]

Hey!
I have a problem guys! I tried to install Wine in Ubuntu 9.04 but it isn't installing. I tried it by typing the following command in Terminal :

sudo apt-get install wine

But it says package wine not found! What kind of error is that? I have installed wine on previous versions of ubuntu and never had such kind of problem. Do you think this is a bug in Ubuntu itself? Ubuntu 9.04 is not a beta version so i know that this might not be a bug. Am i missing something? Help guys! Thanks.

Hey!
Did you add the repositories of wine in software sources? If not then this is the problem, Ubuntu package manager doesn't recognize any software if the repositories of that software are not in the list. You need to add a key which in the software sources too which will make the repositories legit... This is what you missed..! All the best.

Hey!
Well i don't know how to add repositories and key in software package manager. Can you guide me through that? Help! I never did this in previous version. I used Ubuntu 8.04 which needed nothing. At that time i had a .deb package so i installed it just by double clicking on it. Can anyone provide me the link of the .deb package of wine for Ubuntu 9.04? thanks!

Wine is a free and open source implementation of the Windows API which allows you to run Windows applications on any Linux distros. In this post you will see how to install the latest version of Wine.

Before installation, get the PGP key for the WineHQ APT repository. This key will be used by your system as a mean to authenticate the repository.

Then go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources. Enter your password and select the “Third-Party Software” tab. Click Add and add in the following code :

deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt jaunty main #WineHQ - Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope"

After the repository has been added, select the “Authentication” tab, click on the Import Key File button and select the PGP file that you downloaded earlier. Then press the Close button.
Now you can install wine from terminal by typing :

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine

All the best!

Hey!
The simplest way to install wine on Ubuntu is to run the following code in terminal :

sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/jaunty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

Now run the following code :

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine
