Hello Rustam,
the package 'libopenais2' exists only in the stable archiv. So put the
lines for stable in your /etc/apt/sources.list and try to install again.
And if you have problems like the above one, you can always try another
solution from aptitude. Don't hit 'q', but hit the 'n' key and aptitude
will suggest you another solution.
