• Update 1

  Fixed all sudo apt-get update erros
  But still can't sudo apt-get install wine

• Update 2

  As @Sneetsher mention to me.

• Update 5

  After I could install wine as suggested by Sneetsher. I still can't run .exe files using wine. Screenshot belowis for:

  wine ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/notepad.exe is top window. And both windows in the bottom are for OLLYDBG.EXE by clicking on it.

  I can't make any edit through notepad.

  

  $ wine --version
  wine-1.6.2
  $ which wine
  /usr/local/bin/wine
  

Please, let me know If I have to provide more information.

This will be kind of resume to the trials in the comments above and the related chat room where it was resolved.

What we tried without success:

• Enable i386 architecture sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386, as Wine needs many dependencies from the 32bit repositories.
• OP created new sources.list with all components enabled.
• Disabled all PPA's (Check with grep -r "^deb" /etc/apt/sources.list.d/)
• aptitude which gives many solutions but all were trying to remove most of the installed desktop packages (>200 packages) or keep it as it is without installing Wine.
• Installing 1.6 instead 1.7 sudo apt-get install wine=1:1.6.2-0ubuntu4, same unresolved dependencies message.

• Tracking the conflict down using apt-get install, then got branches.

  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libglu1-mesa:i386 : Depends: libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 or
  libgl1:i386
  E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
  

  It is not practical to search for conflict this way, waste of efforts and time consuming.

So what we are looking for could be a far (not direct) dependency package:

• Not available in official repositories + Wine PPA.

• Or installed but has a version not from official repositories + Wine PPA.

  (ie. installed version is higher than those available from repositories. apt-get & aptitude do not provide solutions with downgrading some packages)

Here are resumed steps:

1. Add back Wine PPA

2. I installed debfoster on my machine with same release of OP's system (14.04). Generate list of all recursive dependencies of wine:

   debfoster -d wine
   

   (Why is this? OP can't run this on his machine because debfoster like apt-cache works only for installed packages)

3. Asked the OP to provide the output of apt-cache policy ... for the list generated in the previous step. (Update 4, in the question)

4. Then stored previous output and filtered it for easy review:

   grep -e "^[a-zA-Z]" -e "^[ ]*\*\*\*" -e "^[ ]*[1-9]00" -e "^[* ]*[0-9][0-9a-zA-Z:+_~.-]* 0" wine_policy_output.txt
   

5. Found these packages:

   These seem from “xorg-edgers fresh X crack”. Downgrade them to the version available in repository:

   sudo apt-get install \
     libdrm2=2.4.60-2~ubuntu14.04.1 \
     libdrm-intel1=2.4.60-2~ubuntu14.04.1 \
     libdrm-nouveau2=2.4.60-2~ubuntu14.04.1 \
     libdrm-radeon1=2.4.60-2~ubuntu14.04.1 \
     libwayland-client0=1.4.0-1ubuntu1 \
     libwayland-cursor0=1.4.0-1ubuntu1
   

6. Still couldn't install wine, we looked for any other suspected package:

   libcgmanager0:
    *** 0.39-2ubuntu2~ubuntu14.04.1 0
           100 http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/ trusty-backports/main amd64 Packages
           100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
        0.24-0ubuntu7.5 0
           500 http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages
        0.24-0ubuntu7.1 0
           500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security/main amd64 Packages
        0.24-0ubuntu5 0
           500 http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
   

   This one: 1st point, it is from backports. 2nd point, the current version 0.39 is too far from 0.24 in the stable repo. Downgrade it:

   sudo apt-get install libcgmanager0=0.24-0ubuntu7.5
   

7. Now, wine installation passed well

   sudo aptitude install wine
   

About the rendering issue, the windows are grayed. As it seems from wine --version 1.6 but we have installed 1.7 & which wine brought that system have a local version of wine installed from source.

Try echo $PATH, you have some thing like:

/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games

See..the variable PATH, it is where the system looks for executable. So writing just wine in shell, it will look in /usr/local/sbin folder, if not found then /usr/local/bin then /usr/sbin then /usr/bin...

Quick fix, removing that local copy of wine:

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/wine*

If you want to keep it, you may run wine with full path:

/usr/bin/wine ...

Update:

I could reproduce same problem on a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 installation. I confirm that the only troubling package is libcgmanager0 version 0.39-2ubuntu2~ubuntu14.04.1 which I don't know how it got installed in the first place.

The packages from “xorg-edgers fresh X crack” PPA are clean and I had suggested downgrading them as a procedure to isolate the problem.
