In my case, this installation failed due to lack of space on the /boot
partition

apt-get -f install failed:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-image-generic:
 linux-image-generic depends on linux-image-extra-3.8.0-30-generic; however:
  Package linux-image-extra-3.8.0-30-generic is not configured yet.

removing older linux-image and linux-image-extra packages cleared the
problem.
