You need to first remove ca-certificates-java. After removing it you may need to reinstall your java.

Remove it completely using

sudo apt-get purge ca-certificates-java

After it execute

sudo apt-get install -f

    @D3canas, execute sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/ca-certificates-java.postinst /var/lib/dpkg/info/ca-certificates-java.postinst.bac before the first command and re-execute both commands.

  • @D3canas the whole grayed line is single command . copy from sudo to postinst.bac and execute it.
