    How do I install latest Wine on 13.10

    As official repo doesn't seem to support latest Ubuntu.
    Thank you for your time!

    Code:
    apt-cache policy wine
    wine:
      Installed: (none)
      Candidate: 1.4.1-0ubuntu7
      Version table:
         1.4.1-0ubuntu7 0
            500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/universe
    I would say just install it. Unless you're looking for a ppa?
    !.5 is beta too. Beta and wine - not a good combo if you ask me.

    As a test I just installed wine 1.4.1 from the 13.10 Software Centre without problems. Provided you do not get caught out as I did by the dialog for accepting the terms and conditions of using MS core fonts being placed behind the Software Centre application window. I get caught by that every time.

    If you are referring to a PPA that has not yet been packaged for saucy, then I suggest put in the PPA in software sources and make sure it is pointing to a raring repository and not a saucy repository.

    Regards.

    I thought more of installing the latest beta 1.7.3 I believe. But I'll try and point it to raring repo and see what happens

    Can't vouch for how well it works, but someone has packaged the latest wine 1.7.3 here: https://launchpad.net/~joe-yasi/+arc...s_filter=saucy
