[Bug 1289437] [NEW] package linux-headers-3.11.0-18 3.11.0-18.32 failed to install/upgrade: package linux-headers-3.11.0-18 is already installed and configured

[Michael Spredemann]

Public bug reported:

I ran the Ubuntu software updater and it failed with the message
"Package Manager broken".  I restarted the system to see if that cleared
things up.  Now running the updater keeps failing.
