How to install wine on Ubuntu 16.04 64 bits

If you try to install wine, maybe you will see the following error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 wine1.6 : Depends: wine1.6-i386 (= 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu14)
           Recommends: fonts-droid but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I tried installing these fonts but without solution.
To avoid it, you can download the source code and compile it:

wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine/source/2.0/wine-2.0.tar.bz2
tar xjvf wine-2.0.tar.bz2
cd wine2.0
./configure

 checking whether gcc -m32 works... no
configure: error: Cannot build a 32-bit program, you need to install 32-bit development libraries.

 This happend because you must be explicit if you want to install on a 64-bits platform.

./configure --enable-win64
make -j8
sudo make install

Enjoy it!

How to fix Android when developer options are not available for this user

Image
I have an Android One with Oreo version and suddenly my Android rebooted and after that it started to behave strangely: 1) Notification section doesn't work. I can't see notifications from my apps and the arrow and the screw icon to settings access don't work. 2) As I can't access to the notification area, I can't enable Use USB to Transfer Files to access to my phone memory. 3) I can't access to developer mode (I before active it with a lot of taps over Build number). Clicking on developer options just shows developer options are not available to this user. 4) I can't update or install the apps on google play. They freeze on Download pending... message 5) Home and Switch buttons don't work. They light up and vibrate when I tap them but they do nothing.
