Hi, everyone. So I have this issue when installing wine, everytime I try to install it, it says

margot@greenobsession:~$ sudo apt-get install wine
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
wine: Depends: libopenal1 but it is not installable
Recommends: ttf-liberation but it is not installable
Recommends: ttf-mscorefonts-installer but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
margot@greenobsession:~$



I don't know how to fix it, I've tried the synaptic>edit>fix broken packages and the sudo apt-get update but nothing seems to work.
And hell, I can't install anything cause it always results in broken packages and unmet dependencies.

help will be greatly appreciated. thanks!:)
