The special apt-get subcommand exists for such purpose - it is called build-dep.
See man apt-get online or from your system:
build-dep
build-dep causes apt-get to install/remove packages in an attempt to satisfy the build dependencies for a source package. By default the dependencies are satisfied to build the package natively. If desired a host-...

As was said comments, we can remove MongoDB with the following command:
sudo apt-get purge mongodb-enterprise*
Then for most of the use-cases you can use Remmina from main pocket of repositories.
So you have to remove the PPA with
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:remmina-ppa-team/remmina-next
and install Remmina ...

So what happened was that there was conflicting packages. Nothing to do with Firefox and not a duplicate of other posts thank you though :) I went into synaptic and completely removed the broken package and manually downloaded the latest version of the package that was specificed by the Ubuntu website that was trying to download.

The issue was caused as a result of unknowingly adding Opera Stable apt-repository to the sources list.
Here's how I fixed it
Solution 1
Open your terminal or command line, and type the following
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
This will open your sources list in the nano editor
Simply scroll down the list and comment out the line that is causing the ...

Instead of doing: sudo apt upgrade by itself you have to use the tag --fix-missing and it will fail at first but then discover all the packages you set up using the normal method of apt-offline and it will update as expected.
Short story use this command: sudo apt ...

I had exactly the same problem and just solved it as follows (origin of my problem was update to docker from older version to latest):

systemctl stop docker.service

If you would care about a gcolor2 alternative, I am recommending Gpick.

Since you can still run dpkg, at least part of the dpkg package is still present. To restore dpkg-deb, you should try re-installing dpkg:
download the appropriate package file (Mint 18.3 is based on Ubuntu 16.04, so look for Xenial on this page to get the appropriate links; the download link I’m giving here assumes you’re using amd64)

You can edit the (PPA) repo file directly, and delete the entry(s) that you want to remove:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Or use the add-apt-repository command, with the -r switch to remove:

Have you created a package.json file? Maybe I Think run this command first again.
LPB_Tandn_IT:~ tannetto$ npm init
This is command creates a package.json file in your folder.
Then run,

The --save ensures your module is saved as a dependency in your package.json file.

While upgrading via apt-get, one usually gets a prompt of what to do with the config file (Install new version, Keep the old version, etc).
If we choose to keep the current version, the new config files get stored with an extension (.dpkg-dist).
The following command can be used to list the new files:
find /etc -type f -name "*.dpkg-dist"

Snaps have the https://snapcraft.io/ repo - this is run by Canonical, the same people that build Ubuntu.
Flatpaks have an official repo at https://flathub.org/ . Flatpaks were developed by Redhat but I don't know if they manage the flathub repo or not.

I see that you have kpsewhich in /usr/local/bin/kpsewhich.
Consider to remove it with
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/kpsewhich
along with miktex cache:

Then rerun texmaker installation:

Upon digging around some more, I found apt-fast. There is an Ubuntu PPA that can be used for installation. The apt-fast command is able not only to download packages in parallel but also to download using multiple connections per package and from multiple mirrors. Documentation is all available on the GitHub page linked above.

Despite the problem no longer being reproducible, I'd suggest that this is the kind of message you'd get if you were trying to install a package with a massive incompatibility -- for instance, if the version of Wine you were attempting to install needed to uninstall KDE Desktop, you'd get a warning that it was going to uninstall everything that depended on ...

There are two different pip packages in Ubuntu 18.04: python-pip (for Python 2.x) and python3-pip (for Python 3.x). To install packages that are compatible with the default Python version in 18.04 you need to install python3-pip.

You can also install numpy with either:

Running the commands separately as shown below should solve the problem as the commands are munged together with "&&"

See the complete solution here. Simply purging the offending kernels works.
It turned out I had three more unwanted kernels: azure, aws, and lowlatency. No idea how I got those - I am sure I never explicitly installed those. Anyway - simply purging them, making sure to keep the generic one, did the trick.

I solved the problem by reinstalling the correct package from the correct version:

I also had this exact problem! (And this post is now the first hit on Google.)
I solved it by building sslscan myself, with static linking; this puts the SSLv2 and SSLv3 support into the executable itself. It might be dangerous to have the global openssl library support old vulnerable protocol versions.
The source code repo for sslscan is here: https://...

Well, I ended up reinstalling Ubuntu: no matter how many solutions I found, the causing problems were too diverse, even if all resembled the fact of somehow messing with the Python default version.
I guess Python truly is something that you should be extra-careful when handling with Ubuntu. Lesson learned the hard way.

Short Answer: I guess it's safe.
Longer Answer:
Using the information from the comments to the question, I deleted all rc packages on my system. Even after the deletion the system remained stable. Therefore I guess it's ok to say it's safe.

Use update-alternatives to put the default python version back to what it was. I am also running Ubuntu 18.04 my python version is 2.7.15

Python 2.7.15+
Then I would recommend looking into setting up virtual python environments using venv (venv in python3 and virtualenv for python2) for testing or running programs that require python 3.

There is no policykit agent running.

I fixed it uninstalling nvidia drivers using:

sudo apt autoremove *nvidia*
I had the same issue and I read that the problem is caused for old packages or dependencies of another nvidia driver previously installed. Once you run the above commands you can do the installation again.

When an ordinary application (like apt) start segfaulting, and it seems like nothing has changed that might otherwise account for the problem, then try reinstalling the package.
sudo apt install --reinstall the_package_name
In this case, since apt is the problem, you can't do that. Instead, use dpkg to reinstall apt.
This is usually pretty easy:

zenity --color-selection provides a no-frills color-dialog. In 19.04, but not in 18.04, the "dropper" in the top-left corner allows you to click on any item on your desktop.:
There's also yad which is said to offer more features than zenity. And the version in 18.04 comes with a dropper to allow you to pick a color from any item on the desktop:

You can’t resolve it, because openjdk-8-jre-headless breaks ca-certificates-java versions older than 20160321.
However I don’t think you need to resolve it:
apt-get install -y -t jessie-backports openjdk-8-jdk
works fine, and the resulting setup does have a /etc/ssl/certs/java/cacerts file.
