[Bug 1282967] Re: package linux-image-3.11.0-17-generic 3.11.0-17.31 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 17

 

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

fixed the problem for the "noob".

What actually does "install -f" do

Thanks
