I'm not sure what those messages mean - could you run the command again 
as

LC_ALL=C sudo apt-get -f install

to have the messages in English. That would make it easier for us to 
diagnose.

But from what I remember, it probably means something like gwenview 
depends on libkf5kipi-bin (>= 16.04) which can't be installed because 
another version is already installed and another package depends on it. 
And hplip depends on hplip-data (= 3.16.7+repack0-1ubuntu1) but version 
3.16.3+repack0-1 is installed.

I think for each package that can't be installed you should search for 
the package which prevents installing the new version and manually 
remove that offending package and then try to install the new version. 
It may take a long time though to resolve everything manually.
