I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS i386. Currently installed linux-image-extra-3.13.0-153-generic.
From past few week I am dealing with this problem, but now the problem gets bigger...even I am not able to install any package from Ubuntu market/store. So far I have tried -f install to fix this and many commands like clean --purge autoremove remove dpkg.
result of sudo apt-get -f install
