I am trying to set up CUDA on my new Ubuntu 22.04 machine and following the instructions as per, official Nvidia guide But I get this when I try to install any package after CUDA installation.
I tried running sudo apt --fix-broken install but got this error log.
atif@aihwkit:~$ uname -r
5.15.0-43-generic
atif@aihwkit:~$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

linux-headers-5.15.0-43-generic is already the newest version (5.15.0-43.46).
linux-headers-5.15.0-43-generic set to manually installed.
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
