package linux-image-extra-3.13.0-46-generic 3.13.0-46.79 failed to install/upgrade: package linux-image-extra-3.13.0-46-generic is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status `half-installed')

[Robert Friendship]

The system came apart after I used BleachBit (root) and opted to clean the system.

I had no desktop (xfce4) but managed to get it back ok.

Tried using Computer Janitor to remove old packages to make room on /boot for upgrades.

Now system is (may be) down on next re-boot.

You may need to run the following from a terminal:

sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

Then re-install the updates.

If that does not resolve your issue, please mark the bug as "Confirmed"
