You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

Answer 1

Remova o pacote zorinos-icons . Não é oficial e impede que cabextract instale, fornecendo o mesmo arquivo.

    

Answer 2

já que o apt não estava funcionando, eu não pude executar     sudo apt purgar zorinos-ícones Então eu tive que remover manualmente os conteúdos pesquisando via gerenciador de arquivos no modo raiz. Agora está consertado.
