This question has answers that may be good or bad; the system has marked it active so that they can be reviewed.
















  • you need sudo apt-get -f install (you didn't have sudo), plus try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (it doesn't have the restrictions of upgrade). If you still get problems you need to check your sources.list file (packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libc-bin & packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libc6 as I agree with error messages)

  • I have used sudo apt-get -f install as well. Plus, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is also giving same error

  • I would look in your sources.list file (maybe grep bionic /etc/apt/sources.list) and expect to see something missing. eg. my own shows deb http://[redacted-mirror]/ bionic main multiverse universe restricted (you may not have all, but look for 'main' esp., likewise bionic-updates, bionic-security..)

  • I already have these. The problem is due to unmet dependencies which I am unable to get.

I solved this by logging in via command prompt then entering the command:



sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall


This installed the correct NVIDIA GPU drivers and then it worked fine after restart.
