Wine will not install on precise 64 bit
Hi. I've been plagued by this since I moved to precise. I cannot install wine. No matter what I try or do. I beleive it may be related to ia32libs.

I really need some help here. This is getting ridiculous. I'm not that much of a newbie with the Ubuntu desktop, but right now I'm stuck. I need wine, and this should not be this hard to get installed.

As you are using the official repo, I suggest you report a bug

I've try with both the official ubuntu repo and the official wine repo. Both yield the same issue. I believe it's related to ia32libs not exisitng anymore. I've attempted to file a bug in the past but it seems to have gone unnnoticed.
