[Bug 1484556] Re: package linux-headers-3.13.0-57 3.13.0-57.95 failed to install/upgrade: package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting configuration

 

You may need to run the following from a terminal:

sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

Then re-install the package or updates.

If that does not resolve your issue, please mark the bug as "Confirmed"
