[ale] can't install Wine

[Asher Vilensky]

Thanks for all the good advice.    A simple apt-get installed wine with no
problem.
Ironically, I may want to remove it.  Here's the longer story:
I want wine so I can run safari.
I want safari so I can connect to slingbox (they have a new, safari-only
plugin).

But I made a mistake while installing safari.  Now wine's software manager
wouldn't remove safari (or any software, for that matter).  I tried to
'apt-get remove wine' (wanting to start afresh), but wine (and all the Apple
SW installed on it) are not getting wiped.

Anybody has the experience here how to either:
Force remove all Apple SW from wine - or
force remove wine altogether (assuming that will also remove Apple with
it)????

Thanks.
