Error while trying to install something on the terminal

[gaas]

Every time i try to install something i get this error : E: Dipendenze non soddisfatte. Provare "apt --fix-broken install" senza pacchetti (o specificare una soluzione)
how do i fix it?

The error message is indicating that the package manager (apt) cannot work because it has detected a conflict in package dependencies.
For example, one package may require a certain version of a library package while another package requires a different version of the same library.

Running the suggested command with the --dry-run option should show what apt will try to do the attempt the fix.

Code:

sudo apt --fix-broken install --dry-run

If you post back with the results it may show us the problem.

If it is more complex (o specificare una soluzione) it will be necessary to try to fully understand how the conflict has been caused.
Once that is understood, it may need low-level commands to try to resolve the conflict.
This can get complicated.

Do you have a System Restore point (aka timeshift) made before the conflict ?

What package are you trying to install from the command line ?

[gaas]

I'm trying to install obs studio, but this error happens with every package that i try to install.

It's a Debian package.

Problem happens also with debian packages

I've used OBS Studio for a long time on Linux Lite 6.x.  I installed it from Lite Software though.
Can you give me the syntax you are using so I can try installing it on a test set up in the same way as you.

[gaas]

I used this command
sudo apt install obs-studio (i get the error with every program that i try to install)


and got this error
E: Dipendenze non soddisfatte. Provare "apt --fix-broken install" senza pacchetti (o specificare una soluzione).

OBS-studio installs fine for me on a test system using the command line.
linux-tools-common isn't a dependency for obs-studio

When did your problem start ?
Can you recall what triggered it ?
Have you installed or tried to install any performance tools ?

If this is a fairly new set up you may want to consider starting again.
