Why does installing Wine uninstall other packages?

rated 0 times [ 3] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1193 / 2 Years ago, thu, november 25, 2021, 12:51:39

I'm trying to install Wine on Ubuntu 20.04. However, when I try to do that using apt on the command-line, it says that it will remove Apache2, Blender, and a couple of other things. Any idea why?

$ sudo apt-get install wine64

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

  apache2-data apache2-utils blender-data libaprutil1-dbd-sqlite3 libaprutil1-ldap libblosc1 libdcmtk14 libglew2.1 libjemalloc2 libopenimageio2.1 libopenvdb6.2

  libosdcpu3.4.0 libosdgpu3.4.0 libspnav0 libsquish0 php7.2-readline

Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.

The following additional packages will be installed:

  fonts-wine libcapi20-3 libfaudio0 libosmesa6 libstb0 libvkd3d1 libwine wine

Suggested packages:

  gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad q4wine winbind winetricks playonlinux wine-binfmt dosbox wine64-preloader

Recommended packages:

  wine32

The following packages will be REMOVED

  apache2 apache2-bin blender libapache2-mod-php7.2 php-fpm php-gd php7.2 php7.2-cli php7.2-fpm php7.3 php7.3-fpm php7.3-gd php7.4-fpm php7.4-gd silversearcher-ag

  whois

The following NEW packages will be installed

  fonts-wine libcapi20-3 libfaudio0 libosmesa6 libstb0 libvkd3d1 libwine wine wine64

0 to upgrade, 9 to newly install, 16 to remove and 4 not to upgrade.

Need to get 28.5 MB of archives.

After this operation, 122 MB of additional disk space will be used.

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

I'll also add for completion that these are not unneeded dependencies marked for removal, as this command shows:

$ sudo apt-get autoremove

# ...

0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 4 not to upgrade.

Edit: Thanks to the hints of Brian Turek, I tried installing it using aptitude:

$ sudo apt install aptitude

# ...

$ sudo aptitude install wine64

It turns out that I was experiencing this problem because I had packages installed from a third-party repository deb.sury.org . Although I can't remember it well now, I think I had installed a more recent version of PHP from that repository months ago, probably before upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Even though that third-party repository was disabled (as shown in the "Software & Updates" GUI tool), some of those packages were still installed, and had higher version numbers than the ones available in the Ubuntu repositories. This meant that they did not get replaced with updates.

Thanks to help from Brian Turek, here's what I did to investigate this and to figure it out:

After installing `aptitude`, I ran `sudo aptitude install wine64`:

This gave me much more useful error messages, and showed that the problem was that with conflicting dependency requirements with a package named libpcre3 (and other packages), specifically with the version number 2:8.43-1+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1. That deb.sury.org part was a clue that this package was not from the Ubuntu repositories but from a third-party repository, deb.sury.org.

I checked the source of a package using `apt-cache policy libpcre2-8-0`

This showed me this output:

$ apt-cache policy libpcre2-8-0

libpcre2-8-0:

  Installed: 10.34-7+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1

  Candidate: 10.34-7+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1

  Version table:

 *** 10.34-7+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1 100

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

     10.34-7 500

        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages

This showed that the installed version was the deb.sury.org version, and the the version with the highest version number is the deb.sury.org version, but there is another version from the Ubuntu repositories (archive.ubuntu.com).

At this point, I decided to remove all packages from that repository and reinstall the Ubuntu repository versions.

Remove the third-party repository

If the third-party repository wasn't already removed, I would have removed it using the tool "Software & Updates"

List all packages installed from deb.sury.org

I created a list of all packages from that repository by running:

apt list --installed | grep sury

Uninstall or reinstall packages from deb.sury.org

For each package in that list, I try to uninstall that package:

sudo apt uninstall PACKAGENAME

Or I would reinstall it from the Ubuntu repositories like this. I would find the correct version number from the Ubuntu repositories:

$ apt-cache madison libidn2-0
