Issue:
“sudo apt –fix-broken install”
leads to something such as:
“
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-6.8.0-87-generic_6.8.0-87.88~22.04.1_amd64.deb

“
Resolution:
Run Update Manager > View > Linux Kernels > remove kernels with status “installed” and “Superseded” or using cli “sudo apt autoremove –purge”; if necessary to manually identify the installed kernels use “dpkg -l linux-image-* | grep ^ii” and then remove a specific version using “sudo apt remove –purge linux-image-[version]”
