Look for sections like the following:

Then 'cd /var/cache/apt/archives/' and 'dpkg --force-all -i
<package_name>' Do that for each package that has problems like the one
above. Then 'apt-get -f install', to fix everything up and continue
again with the upgrade. It will necessary to do this for every upgrade
until the packages are all perfectly sorted in this respect.
