@AryaSadeghi you installed something else that is related to another version of Ubuntu. Can you tell us what that is? You cannot mix packages from different releases of Ubuntu - they are incompatible.

You have an incompatible version of libcurl3
installed on your system. Probably you had a PPA or other unofficial software source added at some point in the past which provided this.
The solution is to downgrade libcurl3
to the correct version matching the other packages from the official repositories:
sudo apt install libcurl3=7.55.1-1ubuntu2
After that, you should be able to install playonlinux
, as its dependency curl
will no longer be blocked by a conflicting dependency version.
