That and the apt-get update, which is also recommended. 

I don't know why you think that I would assume that you "tried that, of
course": nothing in your post suggested that you did. And I would avoid
wasting your and my time with more complicated stuff before being sure
that you tried the simple things first.

It is the collective mailing list wisdom of decades that the person
asking for help is in general best off by stating 4 things:
* What he aims to achieve
* What he did
* What the exacts results were
* What he tried to correct them and with what effects
This gives helpers the best basis to work from.

So, you tried "apt-get upgrade --fix-missing". What was the output? And
did you also "apt-get update" before that?
