Sorry, user error.

I don't disagree.

Right, well, I went that route hoping to get anything installed, because
wine32 was failing.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 wine32:i386 : Depends: libwine:i386 (= 4.0-2) but it is not going to be
installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Yeah, I've never had problems before now.

I don't necessarily need a newer version of wine, I just need anything, and
that's what I'm not getting currently, because nothing is installing.
