many masters in here. I just have some problem while installing software via terminal. for example, I want to install wine with the code sudo apt-get install wine. But terminal said this: 

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 shotwell : Depends: shotwell-common (= 0.18.0-0ubuntu4) but 0.18.0-0ubuntu4.2 is to be installed
 wine : Depends: wine1.6 but it is not going to be installed or
                 wine1.7 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

anyone wants to help me ? great thanks for all of you masters.

  • Do you have any third-party repositories enabled? – fkraiem Sep 27 '14 at 23:30
  • how can i know if i have enabled third-party repositories?? I'm sorry, I'm a new user. great thanks for you – Tikno Sep 27 '14 at 23:34
  • You can edit your question with the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list, and also of any file in the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d. (To view a file you can run the command gedit /path/to/file.) – fkraiem Sep 27 '14 at 23:37
  • Running sudo apt-get -f install as suggested by @Zeus77 would also be a good idea in any case. – fkraiem Sep 27 '14 at 23:39

You have a broken package.

Run $ sudo aptitude -f install to fix that first, and then go on to install wine.

Though, personally I prefer using playonlinux, in automatically handles the wine version etc. for you and keeps apps in different wineprefixes, gets less messy that way.
