Yes. Update fails at the very beginning of the process. I am using the  
graphical (GUI) version for the actual update, but using the command line  
for all of the apt-get commands being suggested.

It appears that something is wrong with the four components shown in prior  
posts. I am reluctant to uninstall tzdata and grub. I've not yet tried to  
uninstall wine or wine1.2.

What more can I do/send?

And, by the way, thanks, very much, for your interest and follow-up
posts.
