** Description changed: + [IMPACT] + + This bug can make Wine uninstallable in some cases. + + [TESTCASE] + + Install wine1.4. See comment #13 + + [Regression Potential] + + gettext was never needed for Wine's installed binaries, so none is + forseen + + [Other Info] + + This may be a workaround to a bug in apt, as it seems to have a logical failure here since it is failing to install due to a package listed only in Recommends. Fixing apt would be more risky. + + [ORIGINAL REPORT] + I simply checked for updates and hit the update button. After some time this error appeared.
