I have weird issue with ubuntu 14.04. When I trying update my system or install any software I have an error

$ sudo apt-get install 4digits
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    4digits : Depends: python-glade2 but it is not going to be installed
    linux-tools-3.13.0-53 : Depends: linux-tools-common but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution)

So when I try start "sudo apt-get -f install" I have error again

This bug is confirmed. As packages require vivid tools, upgadring to 15.04 may be a workaround.

Try to repair your package management via

sudo apt-get purge linux-tools-3.13.0-53 linux-tools-common

Eventually remove the other app too

sudo apt-get purge 4digits
