Colin,
Thanks for your instructions.
I updated the software sources and when it started to reread the
repositories I got the following errors:

So apparently those are´nt available.
Logically sudo apt-get update gave the same errors.
apt-cache policy wine gave:

wine:

But sudo apt-get install wine gave:
Reading package lists... Done

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
wine : Depends: wine1.6 but it is not going to be installed or
wine1.7 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I have used synaptic where you can repair broken packages but that
does´nt do much.
So it seems to point to something else.
As far as I have seen no files related to wine exist outside my home
directory (mainly directory .wine).
Hopefully you can point to a solution.
