[Lubuntu-admins] [Bug 1682874] Re: GDebi re: wine32:i386: "Error: no longer provides wine32"

No, marking as Invalid because the release is EOL is not correct. Please
don't do this, dino99.

Reporter, is this still present on 17.10?

Bug description:
  I was having difficulty running the development version of GIMP from Partha's std 64-bit,
  and he asked me to run it from the terminal with certain variables set.  I could not do this, getting 
  "scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AM-PLUS:~$ wine /home/scott/.wine/drive_c/ProgramFiles/GIMP-2.9.5-std/gimp/bin/RunGimpScript.bat
  wine: Bad EXE format for C:\ProgramFiles\GIMP-2.9.5-std\gimp\bin\RunGimpScript.bat.
  "
  (Note, that to avoid quoting issues, I created a link to the actual "Program Files", naming it "ProgramFiles")
  Google-ing this issue suggested a 64-bit vs 32-bit issue, so I pulled up Synaptic and looked at the installed packages.

  There seemed to be both 32-bit and 64-bit assorted wine files/libs .

  But I noticed a wierd thing: when I tried to look at the "Installed Files" for wine32:i386,
  I got the message: "The list of installed files is only available for installed packages",
  although the package was checkmarked as installed, and under Common->Status Installed was checkmarked.
  This was not the case for the other wine packages.
  I re-installed the package, but got the same thing.

  I tried to see what was in the install .deb with GDebi, but it errored
  with: "Error: no longer provides wine32"

  I don't know if it is THE problem, but it looks rather like A problem,
  anyway...
