[Bug 1573971] Re: problem with installing virtualbox (libqtcore4 package) in 16.04.

[Paul Barden]

I have the same problem. It's a bunch of nonsense in an endless loop. I
have to remove every package individually (manually!) and all
dependencies EVERY SINGLE TIME THIS HAPPENS. Frustrating. I forced an
install of libqtcore4 and my system became unstable, freezing and such.
>From what I have experienced, VirtualBox, Skype and a few others cannot
run without it.

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
