I have a situation where:
sudo apt-get install winetricks
Results in:
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: aglfn apturl apturl-common asymptote-doc biber ca-certificates-java catdoc cdparanoia cdrskin cmake-data context ... Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them. The following additional packages will be installed: fonts-wine libwine-development wine-development wine64-development Suggested packages: ttf-mscorefonts-installer winbind playonlinux wine-binfmt dosbox libwine-gecko-2.47 wine64-development-preloader aria2 tor Recommended packages: libcapi20-3 libodbc1 libosmesa6 wine32-development The following packages will be REMOVED appmenu-qt asymptote cdrdao chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra clang clang-6.0 cmake cmake-qt-gui compiz compiz-gnome dvd+rw-tools eog evince firefox g++-5 g++-5-multilib g++-9 gcc-5 gcc-5-multilib gcc-9 gcj-5-jre-lib gfortran-5 gnome-sudoku ... After this operation, 2,032 MB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
Why? I don’t understand why installing winetricks
would possibly cause g++-9
and spotify-client
(and 2GB of utterly essential applications) to be deleted. Can I not use these packages simultaneously?
EDIT: It has even deleted my ubuntu-desktop
and nautilus
I gained access to wine via
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/pp
I am on 18.04
