[Bug 1356743] Re: package libcap2 1:2.22-1ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libcap2 is already installed and configured

 

The "Status: purge ok installed" on the three netcat packages is not
right.  Could you please try:

sudo cp /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status.orig
sudo sed -i 's/purge ok installed/install ok installed/' /var/lib/dpkg/status

and see if that helps?  Hopefully that is the only error and you can
proceed after that, but there could be more corruption after that.
