[Bug 1943312] Re: dependency problems of version 3.4.2-1ubuntu3

[Nadya Sarankhova]

These, during initial install of the update to the -ubuntu3 version:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libffi8:amd64:
 libffi8:i386 (3.4.2-1ubuntu3) breaks libffi8ubuntu1 and is unpacked but not configured.
  libffi8:amd64 (3.4.2-1ubuntu3) provides libffi8ubuntu1.

dpkg: error processing package libffi8:amd64 (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

Now i get no errors of any kind anywhere.  I can only boot to the
recovery mode boot root shell.  If booting to the desktop, either
normally or via recovery mode "resume" i get a white screen that
something has gone wrong, log out and retry.  retrying is futile.  i've
tried five ties in a row and gotten the same message.

Dpkg (via root shell) finds nothing end exits.

apt --fix-broken finds nothing and shows all packages up to date as of
0700 (US, Central) this morning.

Thanks for trying to help.
