Hi Pol


Im not sure of the exact order as I also repeated several steps but in 
essence I relied on 3 things.

1) Disabling all third party software sources/repositories (In my case I 
think the issue was with some bleeding edge Mesa code.)

then running

2) " sudo apt-get update  "

and

3) "  sudo apt-get install -f  "


Though I did cycle through option 2 and 3 often. Sometimes with the use 
of Ubuntu's "Software Updater" thrown into the mix.

Once the bits of stubborn code were updated I enabled external software 
sources once again and things were back to normal.

Sorry if this isnt a step 1,2,3,4 answer as Im really not sure of what 
combination unblocked the issue.

Anyway good luck with your issue.
