应用建议的更新（179）后，过程结束时出现一条错误消息，建议我运行 apt-get install -f。
由于这是一个相当新的 Ubuntu 安装 (x86)，我尚未在 Thunderbird 中设置任何内容。使用 -f 进程生成了不同的错误消息 (查看详细信息)：
~$ sudo apt-get install -f

答案1
尝试：
sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/thunderbird_12.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1_i386.deb
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
注意：在同意之前，只需查看 apt-get dist-upgrade 的输出，在没有启用 -proposed 的系统上应该是安全的
