I have server running
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial
I'm trying to upgrade system using this commands. current user is not a root.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
but it shows me errors like this
linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 : Depends: linux-image-4.15.0-33-generic but it is not installed
Recommends: thermald but it is not installedlinux-modules-extra-4.15.0-30-generic : Depends: linux-image-4.15.0-30-generic but it is not installed or
linux-image-unsigned-4.15.0-30-generic but it is not installed
I've tried to install this packages independently but it did not solve my problem
also i've tried to use
sudo apt-get -f install
no solution.

sudo apt install linux-image-4.15.0-33-generic

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-image-4.15.0-33-generic : Depends: linux-modules-4.15.0-33-generic but it is not going to be installed
linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 : Depends: linux-image-4.15.0-34-generic but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: thermald but it is not going to be installed
linux-modules-extra-4.15.0-34-generic : Depends: linux-image-4.15.0-34-generic but it is not going to be installed or
linux-image-unsigned-4.15.0-34-generic but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
I have googled but i could not find the answer, may be i'm searching wrongly.
What i can do now ?

I had similar problems with
apt-get upgrade
on Ubuntu 10.04. Then I learned thatapt-get dist-upgrade
is better at dealing with dependencies. I have usedapt-get dist-upgrade
since then and it has worked for me on 10.04, 12.04, 14.04, and 16.04.
