Hi @reymon,

Maybe first try

sudo apt autoremove

Then
delete the .wine directory in /home.
Then
sudo apt update

I would make sure that the antix repos are recognized during the sudo apt update.
Then try again to install wine

sudo apt install wine wine32 wine64

Hope this helps. Others may know more to help.

Tried the steps you’ve suggested, same problem.

If you do’t mind, could you share your repo list?
inxi -r

And also show the different sources for wine and wine32
apt policy wine wine32

I was able to install wine and wine32 on a live 64-bit antiX 19.4 full (default repos), so I am hoping you should also be able to do so.

Of course, I’d really like to solve this.
Here is the output:
