Those installation instructions are fairly old. My guess is that at the time, only a beta version of wine worked, so special instructions (step 1) was needed.

All you should need to do to install wine on Ubuntu is run the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine


There's a decent chance you might need to undo what was done in step one.

hmm, are you sure you did everything in step one?

These instructions are straight from http://www.winehq.org/download/deb

Alternative command Line Instructions for Installing Wine:

It is also possible to add the Wine repositories and install via the command line, as follows. These may be useful on Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and other Ubuntu derivatives.

First, open a terminal window (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). Then add the repository's key to your system's list of trusted APT keys by copy and pasting the following into your terminal:

wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -

Next, add the repository to your system's list of APT sources:

For Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04):
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/ jaunty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

For Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10):
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/ intrepid.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

For Ubuntu Hardy (8.04):
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/ hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

Then update APT's package information by running 'sudo apt-get update'. You can now install Wine normally or by typing 'sudo apt-get install wine' into the terminal.

Actually, could you give the result of this command:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

Next I dont know what to do


Next, add the repository to your system's list of APT sources:

For Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04):
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/ jaunty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
