The following packages have unmet dependencies:
cups : Depends: cups-server-common (>= 2.1.3-4) but it is not going to be
installed

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:

This is related to this bug

After `sudo apt-get -f install`, it removed cups and marked a bunch of
cups packages as unnecessary
`sudo apt-get autoremove` removed them.
Now when I try to re-install cups, I get this error:
```
☀ sudo apt-get install cups cups-daemon cups-core-drivers
Mod master
