Issue with dependancy libfontconfig [SOLVED]

I'm trying to install Airwave Vst bridge on a linux mint 18.3 64bits, but the installation stops when trying to install the libfoncconfig dependancy. This is the error i get in the installation process :
/var/cache/apt/archives/libfontconfig1_2.11.94-0ubuntu1.1_i386.deb
After this, synaptic tells me i have a broken package: libgd3:i386

Any idea how to solve this ?

It would be better if you try to install that package in the terminal using apt or apt-get and paste the results back here.

The error or whatever it is you're showing is not any help at all :?

I tried to install the program with this file (i donwloaded the airwave_1.3.3-1_amd64.deb file and double click on it to install):
https://github.com/phantom-code/airwave/releases

When trying to install, it asks to install several items like libfontconfig1, libgd3 and wine.

How should I proceed from the terminal ?

Change to the folder containing that package file and sudo dpkg -i airwave_1.3.3-1_amd64.deb

Well there ya go:

airwave depends on wine; however:
Package wine is not installed.

You would have to first install wine I guess :?

There seems to be some sort of conflict with the libfontconfig1 package

What's returned with dpkg -l libfontconfig1*

Try moving that file to your home, it's just a compressed text file of changes - I don't know why it's croaking on it :?

sudo mv -v /usr/share/doc/libfontconfig1/changelog.Debian.gz ~ then run apt-get install --fix-broken
