I also had the same issue, have fixed it [by disabling the webupd8team repositories, but some days ago I went again into the same issue again.
Finally, the workaround from Manfred Hampl worked out at the first attempt (actually, on the second attempt, as I forgot to add the '--fix-broken install' apt parameters).
