Re: How to install Wink for Ubuntu 8.04 [64-bit]
huh. it is possible the 64 bit version was overwitten when i formatted last week, as I didn't check the image to see which one I installed......suck. ok, i'm gong to reinstall, with the 64 image, and then get back to you.. (luckily, installs of ubuntu take about, a second)
i686 means clearly does pertain to x86......damn. my bad. will write back once i reload.
thanks,
A

Ignore the Ubuntu version listed in the thread's title. The instructions should work for any recent version of Ubuntu including 9.10 or 10.04.

I can't get this to work on 11.04. I am stuck at
Code:
ematheson@elanor-ubuntu:~/Desktop$ sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i ~/Desktop/wink*.deb
dpkg: warning: overriding problem because --force enabled:
package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
dpkg: regarding .../wink_1.5.1060-3ubuntu1_i386.deb containing wink:i386:

Errors were encountered while processing:

I tried the suggestion of sudo apt-get remove wink and received

Virtual packages like 'wink' can't be removed

I need this to work. I've installed everything else that's needed but libexpat1 is preventing me from installing wink. What do I do?
