Can't find a way to install libxxf86dga

[Guest]

I am trying to install wine latest version. I get this error message when compiling . libxx86dga not found wine will be compiled but it is impossible to use it without dga.
then I ve tried apt-get update
and got something like libxxf86dga uninstalled
tried dpkg -i winehq XX version_i386 and got a similar message
tried downloading libxxf86dga directly from a a package mirror of debian and installing with dpkg -i and got an error. libxxf86dga depends on x-common and this package cannot be installed
Maybe the file /etc/apt/sources.list is wrongly configured . I ve tried to stick to the server I ve installed debian from but packages are outdated I write down the file here maybe someone can tell me a better way to configure this file

#deb http://download.unesp.br/linux/debian/ sarge main

#deb ftp://ftp.cl.debian.org/debian/ stable main note:(this is the server i ve downloaded dbeian from)
deb http://amule-debian.dyndns.org/ debian/
#deb-src ftp://ftp.cl.debian.org/debian/ stable main
deb http://www.os-works.com/debian testing main note:(xfce rpository)
deb-src http://www.os-works.com/debian testing main
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main
deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/
deb ftp://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ stable main
#deb-src ftp://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ stable main

#deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main

That library doesn't exist as its own package in sarge. You'll have to either grab the xorg backport from backports.org or switch your system to testing or unstable.

Why do you want the latest version of Wine?
Is what you have installed broken?

I found these files:

bob@debian:~$ apt-cache search libxx | grep dga

libxxf86dga1 - X Direct Graphics Access extension library
libxxf86dga-dev - X Direct Graphics Access extension library development files
libxxf86dga1-dbg - X Direct Graphics Access extension library (unstripped)

But only in testing and unstable. If you are trying to build from source, you will need to install libxxf86dga-dev. But since you are using Sarge, it may not work. If you really want to do this, I suggest that you install Debian in another partition for experimental use and upgrade to Sid.

I only want to run some game and wine from debian repository it s a bit outdated . Thnxs for the advice turning the system unstable for a just a game is not worthy I ll guess I ll wait

A mixture of stable and unstable is possible. I'm using the latest Wine in sarge, and it works ok. I've also had to work through some very complex dependency issues -- more than apt-get could dream of solving.

If you're up to the challenge, start by downloading the package from http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ and then dpkg --install. The install will almost certainly fail. Read the output and find the top-level dependencies you need. Bring up each in its own browser tab and download. As you try to install each, you'll find the sub-dependencies, sub-sub-dependencies, and so on. Using multiple tabs will help you find each package and know where you are on each branch of the dependency tree. Eventually you'll work each branch from the edge back to the trunk. You'll know you've arrived when you can finally dpkg --install wine098.deb and get no errors.

It takes me a whole afternoon (or evening) to back up, so I don't do it as often as I ought. But undertaking something this big warrants it. I actually did a full restore just a few days ago when finding an unrelated dependency jungle was more trouble than it was worth.
