In elementary OS it is not possible to add PPAs by default. You need to enable this feature with sudo apt install software-properties-common

Try to update / dist-upgrade your system. There are a lot of not up to date packages.
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean. Then also check if there is something written with broken packages. Try to runsudo apt update --fix-missingand thensudo apt install -fJul 11, 2019 at 14:35 -
Which eOS are you using? Is it Juno? If so, you should use the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS link.
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'Jul 11, 2019 at 14:41 -
This worked for me.
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo apt-key add winehq.key
sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cybermax-dexter/sdl2-backport
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt update && sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
Try using:
sudo apt-get install wine-stable
