[George Nace <1806265@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was finally able to resolve this problem by unchecking/removing the
entries for java in the webupd8team ppa, after manually installing the
Oracle java-8-sdk using the procedures found in the following answer:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/56104/how-can-i-install-sun-oracles-
proprietary-java-jdk-6-7-8-or-jre

After editing the repository using Synaptic Package Manager to remove
all of the webupd8team java entries I used Software Updater to
successfully update the system.

Here is the terminal output from before and after the successful update:
