Wine 3.0.3, the open-source compatibility layer to allow Windows programs to run on Unix/Linux, was released a few days ago as a new stable release.
Wine 3.0.3 fixed 52 known bugs, including fixes for Windows PowerShell, iTunes 12, Adobe Premiere Elements 14, Max Payne 3, ProPresenter 4, and various other application fixes. For more, read the announcement.
How to Install Wine 3.0.3 in Ubuntu:
Wine has an official apt repository so far with the latest packages for Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 16.04, and Ubuntu 18.04.
1. Open terminal via Ctrl+Alt+T or by searching it from app launcher. When it opens, run command to add the repository key:
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key && sudo apt-key add winehq.key
Type your password (no asterisks feedback due to security reason) when it asks and hit Enter.
2. Add wine repository via command:
sudo apt-add-repository https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/
For Linux Mint 19, use following command instead (replace bionic with xenial for 18.x):
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main'
3. Finally check updates and install wine stable packages:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable
NOTE: If you get the unmet dependencies issue while installing Wine, try aptitude instead via command:
sudo apt install aptitude; sudo aptitude install winehq-stable
For more details, see the official documentation.
Uninstall:
To remove wine-stable package, run command in terminal:
sudo apt-get remove --autoremove wine-stable wine-stable-amd64
To remove Wine repository, launch Software & Updates utility and navigate to Other Software tab.

The key is wrong on debian buster and in order to use the apt-add-repository command, I have to install the software-properties-common package.
Thank you for this how to.
