I was updating the packages using
apt-getbut interrupted the whole process by doing a Ctrl+D.Now whenever I do a
$ sudo apt-get upgrade. I get an error log like thistasdik@Acer /var/lib/dpkg/updates sudo apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done The following packages have been kept back: linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic mysql-server-5.7 mysql-server-core-5.7 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded. 2 not fully installed or removed. After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue?
