John Van Randen, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

Could you please advise which packages are broken specifically?

[John Van Randen (sparetire61)]

Hello Christopher,

I am a very casual recreational user. My old lap top is probably now, too old. I have to install using forcepae. apt-get install-f did not work. I'm using only the canonical repositories that came with the install.

Hope this helps,

John

this is all copy / pastes;

The package system is broken

Check if you are using third-party repositories. If so, disable them, because they are a common source of problems.
Furthermore, run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

linux-image-extra-4.8.0-32-generic: Depends: linux-image-4.8.0-32-generic but it is not installed

Description: Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.8.0 on 32 bit x86 SMP
 This package contains the Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.8.0 on
 32 bit x86 SMP.
 .
 Also includes the corresponding System.map file, the modules built by the
 packager, and scripts that try to ensure that the system is not left in an
 unbootable state after an update.
 .
 Supports Generic processors.
 .
 Geared toward desktop and server systems.
 .
 You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install
 the linux-generic meta-package, which will ensure that upgrades work
 correctly, and that supporting packages are also installed.
