Bug Description

I was installing wine on my computer and it was failing:

sudo apt install wine
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
wine is already the newest version (5.0-3ubuntu1).
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libavutil56:i386 : Depends: libvdpau1:i386 (>= 0.2) but it is not going to be installed
 mesa-vdpau-drivers:i386 : Depends: libvdpau1:i386 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

sudo apt --fix-broken install
