           Summary: Can't install using winehq repositories on Trisquel
           Product: Packaging
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

I recently decided to try and switch to Trisquel, but I still want to run one
proprietary game via wine which doesn't work on the old wine package which is
in the Trisquel 8 repos so I attempted to use the winehq devel repo but I
couldn't install it. Can you add support for Trisquel in the winehq repos
please?

Don't the Ubuntu repos work for a Ubuntu derived distro?

They mostly do, but there can be problems due to differences between Ubuntu and
the derivative (e.g., Linux Mint).

@Freyr: if you haven't tried the WineHQ Ubuntu packages, please do so.

No response from user, so marking abandoned.

Note that the Ubuntu packages should work for most Ubuntu-based distros, but
they are built on and for Ubuntu. If a derivative distro has made changes that
make it incompatible with our Ubuntu packages, that is a distro problem, not a
Wine packaging problem.
