Wine and wineasio install unmet dependencies on Debian Buster multiarch system.
I have a new Debian Buster Cinnamon system that I have just upgraded to multiarch in preparation of installing Wine and wineasio. I have the KXstudio repo in my /etc/apt/sources.list and have run the following without any errors:
However, when I run the following as per instructions in the Debian Wiki about Wine, I get an unmet dependency issue:
Code:
$ sudo apt install \
> wine-development \
> wine32-development \
> wine64-development \
> libwine-development \
> libwine-development:i386 \
> fonts-wine

There are two inherent problems here, the first and obvious one is that I have an unmet dependency problem. The second, is that I have no experience installing wineasio, which would be the next step, and am not even sure if I am preparing things properly for installing wineasio. I really could use some help with this.
From where did you get KXstudio and why did you added to there in the first place?
Thanks for the reply.

I have been very careful with my sources lists, for example not mixing KXstudio and Debian Multimedia repositories.
Is never a good practice to install PPAs that were not tested by the debian community, I'm not radical by saying you shouldn't install any of those if you take a look at ubuntu and debian forums. But at least you must read carefully before install anything that is not in the official repos, specially if you don't have the knowledge enough or not sure exactly what you doing. Debian is a peculiar linux, hence the name debian gnu, that focuses as you know mainly on stability partly why almost all distros are based/forked on it being Ubuntu just one of the many.
If you take a look at your update output you can see that the mirrors are still in use, despite being on another file, they are on the same path the apt look when check for install anything. So you must comment everything after you install out of the debian box.
On the past many used multimedia repos unofficial and firefox because wasn't available via debian mirrors. You should understand the logic behind this and anything you install that requires more that debian package manager like adding libs and other stuff to the kernel, just check or do a research if is safe to do so.
Apparently KXstudio has is own distro, you could consider using it. They asked debian maintainers to add it to the source since the software respects the gnu philosophy, but must be some reason why was never done.
Also, if you're into music process you don't mind me recommend Daw Slackware. If you use Cinnamon you would be amazed by Plasma5 (kde), Ubuntu is considering moving to Plasma5 because is awesome, and I'm a gtk user from many years since. I already tested and is true that is lower in resources consume comparing to gnome shell, that you use in Cinnamon. Link to Slackware-Current Daw live - https://slackware.nl/slackware-live/latest/
Ok, so as I see KXstudo install some lib that result in conflict with the system, many people have complaining about this, but I'm not so sure it's the case here, since you have more third party stuff.
First disable them in repository /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory. (remove it or comment)
Third open Synaptic, basically a graphical way to do it. Select the broken packages and proceed to fix.
Fourth since you have the backports enabled, apt update, apt upgrade and apt dist-upgrade.
If problems persist, could you be so kind to paste the output, let's say on pastebin, of apt since you installed third party stuff it's on /var/log/apt where you can find various logs with information about what was installed/modified.

KXstudio no longer has their own distro, as far as I can see on their website. I thing the last version was based on Ubuntu 14.02, when they had it.

I used Slackware some years ago. It got old really fast. Particularly the weird philosophy of having four DEs / WMs installed at once really drove me crazy.

I have used KDE Plasma 5 for a few years now, and rediscovered Cinnamon after having tried Budgie, Pantheon and GNOME 3. Cinnamon, like KDE Plasma, fits my workflow perfectly. Personally, I think Cinnamon is just as quick as KDE, but I first started using a low latency kernel with Cinnamon, which could have an effect.

Synaptic doesn't find any broken packages.

Still nothing. I think that I will do a reinstall. The irritating thing is that I need the cadence, carla, catia, claudia, and wine + wineasio for programs that only run on Windows, such as ChordPulse, as shown in this video:
I've just tested on debian buster multiarch with no issues.
Without apt log or libs32 list installed is really hard to tell.
What you can do:
See what you have installed and share it on clipboard (pastebin)
dpkg -l | awk '($1 == "ii") && ($2 ~ /^lib|lib$/) { print $2 }' > libs.txt
I have a feeling that you need the libc6
sudo apt install libc6-i386 -s
Hmm. You were spot on, however multiarch doesn't really seem to have been implemented consistently:
Code:
$ sudo apt install libc6-i386 -s
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libc6-i386
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Inst libc6-i386 (2.28-10 Debian:10.8/stable [amd64])
Conf libc6-i386 (2.28-10 Debian:10.8/stable [amd64])
Oh crap. I went through the libs list that I created with your awk script and didn't find any i386 libs. That plus the above result convinced me that I hadn't implemented multiarch after all - only to discover that now I had 2x i386. Then i removed what I thought was 1x i386, but was actually both. Then I reimplemented multiarch, but still got the above result when trying to install libc6-i386. Still no i386 libs listed in your awk script either. Very strange.
The first command output gave us the libs you have, it's normal you didn't find any i368 because you just enabled multi-arch support, which means you didn't install any 32b package. You updated your system so it can know install.
Like I said earlier without seeing the libs you have I can't guess if anyone 64b lib you have via PPas is making some sort of conflict.
The second command output was to simulate a install pkg with option -s so to see if that is installed. You don't need this pkg.
