Installation of Wine in Ubuntu

Here is a quick way to add the winehq repository so you dont need to wait for the ubuntu community to add the latest wine.


Open up a terminal Applications->Accessories->Terminal

Now copy/paste these commands:

Adding the gpg apt key:



wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O-
sudo apt-key add -



Lets add the Repository via wget:



sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list



Now lets update our apt sources and install the latest wine!



sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install wine



Ok now you will always have the latest wine package installed!
