I was trying to install POL on my chromebook, but got a lot of problems trying to install it

I did these steps to install POL....

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt update
sudo apt install wine32

By entering this command

sudo dpkg -i PlayOnLinux_4.3.4.deb

 terminal says there was an error processing these files

dpkg: error processing package playonlinux (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for mailcap (3.69) ...
Processing triggers for gnome-menus (3.36.0-1) ...
Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils (0.26-1) ...
Processing triggers for man-db (2.9.4-2) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:

but that's why this command is used

sudo apt install -f

Then it should tell me that some more files are installed, but what the terminal tells me is that POL is going to be deleted

If anyone can help me on this i will be grateful
