wine cannot be installed on 64-bit Ubuntu Precise: dependency problems

[Dima Ryazanov]

After upgrading to 12.04, I cannot install wine anymore:

$ sudo apt-get install wine1.4
[...]
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 wine1.4 : Depends: wine1.4-amd64 (= 1.4-0ubuntu4)
           Depends: wine1.4-i386 (= 1.4-0ubuntu4)

$ sudo apt-get install wine1.4-i386
[...]
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 wine1.4-i386:i386 : Depends: libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 but it is not going to be installed or
                              libgl1:i386
                     Depends: libglu1-mesa:i386 but it is not going to be installed or
                              libglu1:i386
                     Recommends: gettext:i386 but it is not going to be installed

And so on.

Try installing wine1.4 and wine1.4-amd64

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
