I cannot install DWSIM v 6.4.9 in my Ubuntu machine: "unable to install dwsim: The following packages have unmet dependencies" --follow a list of packages. I am running Ubuntu 21.04. Any help much appreciate.

Sorry for the delay. I have been trying to find a solution on my own. I never thought that a DWSIM 'wine' version could even exist. Please give me a bit of time to download the 'wine' software and I will come back with the results. Thank.

I have managed to install 'wine' and it seems everything went OK but with some tweaks along the way. I do not know how to bring the DWSIM welcome screen on my machine.
The code I got after typing wine is:
juan@ubuntu:~/aspen$ wine
Usage: wine PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS...] Run the specified program
wine --help Display this help and exit
wine --version Output version information and exit
juan@ubuntu:~/aspen$ wine --version
wine-6.0
juan@ubuntu:~/aspen$
What shall I do from here?

The process of using DWSIM wine in Linux is a cumbersome operation. If this 'problem' has occurred because of using Ubuntu 21.04, am able to wait until a solution is found. I also have the Debian file: dwsim6.4.9-amd64.deb and I wonder if this file were to be downloaded in a ubuntu 20.04 it will download OK and the results could be similar to the Windows look. As a matter of fact, I did downloaded the Debian dwsim6.4.2 in the same machine with Ubuntu 20.04 and it worked fine. Perhaps the Debian.6.4.9 was not mean to work yet on a Ubuntu 2021.04.

Did you follow the instructions in the README for the wine version?
How to run
=================================================
This command sequence assumes that you've extracted the 7z file to your Desktop.
1. Install wine:
sudo apt-get install wine-stable
2. After installing wine, run DWSIM using the following command:
WINEPREFIX=$HOME/Desktop/dwsim-wine_v6.4.9/wineprefix wine C:/DWSIM6/DWSIM.exe
Also, the debian package for v6.4.9 has no different requirements when compared to v6.4.2. The required packages are:
I followed your instruction and indeed it worked. Thank you; much appreciated. Now I am finding a way to shorten the command line that starts with WINEPREFIX with simply 'dwsim-wine'.

did you try the wine version?
