You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libxine1-misc-plugins: Depends: libmodplug0c2 (>= 1:0.7-4.1) but it is not installable
                         Depends: libmpcdec3 but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
