Install musescore on Ubuntu Flavors (Lubuntu, Xubuntu, etc.)

To install musescore on ubuntu flavors, like lubuntu or xubuntu, it might be the easiest, to use wine to install it. The "normal" way by using the repository did not work for me on Lubuntu 12.04, that means it did not install the latest version 2.0

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mscore-ubuntu/mscore-stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

USING WINE TO INSTALL MUSESCORE 2.0

download the windows installer on musescore.org. I used the version for Windos 7,8,10. It will download the file MuseScore-2.0.1.msi.

Install wine with

sudo apt-get install wine

Double-click on MuseScore-2.0.1.msi and always press "Ok" or "Next". Worked for me without any problems.
