Package: wine
Version: 5.0.3-3
Severity: grave

 * Attempting to use wine with a 32-bit windows package advises that I
   need to install wine32.
 * Then attempting to install wine32 fails with "Some packages could
   not be installed".

Windows package: EaseUS Chrome Cache Viewer 
<https://www.easeus.com/file-recovery/recover-cache-files-in-google-chrome.html>.
Forum post: dev1galaxy forum report

This is the terminal attempt to use wine with the EaseUS exe file:

|$ wine ChromeCacheView.exe -folder ~/.cache/chromium/Default/Cache||
||it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it.||
||as root, please execute "apt-get install wine32"||

Next, the terminal result of attempting to install wine32:
