I have fonts-wine, libwineeffects14, libwine, libwine:386, q4wine, wine, wine32-preloader:i386 and wine64.
This list shows not the "wine32" package, please install that one.
If the prefix got created without this package installed initially, then I receive with debian's 10.0~repack-6, which I hope are similar enough to ubuntu,this same error: wine: could not load kernel32.dll, status c0000135
The directory ".wine/drive_c/windows/syswow64" stayed empty.
To get it filled I needed to
cp /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine/i386-windows/{start,wineboot}.exe .wine/drive_c/windows/syswow64/
WINEBOOTSTRAPMODE=1 wine wineboot --update --force
Or simply kill all wine processes by "wineserver -k", rename the .wine directory and let it re-create by "wine wineboot".
