    Status: Open => Answered

Vihar proposed the following answer:
You can try to fix it by apt-get in terminal.

sudo apt-get -s -f autoremove

This will simulate the action of autoremoving. If you don't see any
danger in the output then run the command without the "-s" key.

>  "autoremove is used to remove packages that were automatically installed to satisfy dependencies for some package and that are no more needed"
>  -f  "Fix; attempt to correct a system with broken dependencies in place"
>  -s "No action; perform a simulation of events that would occur but do not actually change the system."
