Presently every time I attempt system updates as directed by the System Update utility, I receive a host of error messages:

I am running Wine 7.0 on my system for downloading of Windows-based programs only. Uncertain WHY(?) I'm getting these error messages and HOW(?), if necessary, to I rectify them?
 


Open a terminal and share the output of the following commands.
Code:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/additional-repositories.list
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq-focal.sources

Both those repos source files have the same source url, remove one of those two sources files and it will stop complaining about the same source being used multiple times.
