Steve,

I can confirm the error persists when using apt -f install. See output
below

I experienced this error while performing the LTS upgrade yesterday.

Information about my machine: Dell XPS 13 9343 i7 8GB RAM 256GB SSD,
with about 45 GB dedicated to my Ubuntu installation.

I would appreciate if you could provide any help, as I am now afraid to
power off my laptop.
