  get install -f":

  insserv: Service dbus has to be enabled to start service lightdm
  insserv: exiting now!
  update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header
  dpkg: error processing package lightdm (--configure):
   subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
  dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of ubuntu-mate-core:
   ubuntu-mate-core depends on lightdm; however:
    Package lightdm is not configured yet.

  dpkg: error processing package ubuntu-mate-core (--configure):
   dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
  No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a previous failure.
