我使用软件更新工具将版本升级到 14.04-->15.10。我重新登录并尝试升级/更新。我遇到了有关未满足的与 TeXlive 相关的依赖关系的错误消息，这使我无法执行任何 apt-get 操作。
我每次尝试使用 apt-get 执行某些操作时都会收到此响应：

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

user@XPS13:~$
运行 apt-get -f install 下载了缺少的软件包，但随后返回错误，并且问题仍然存在：

我在另一个论坛上发现一个帖子，有人在版本升级后遇到了完全相同的问题，但没有解决方案。
https://superuser.com/questions/489681/package-problems-after-upgrade
对 texlive 包执行 apt-get purge 只会返回有关缺少依赖项的相同错误。
另一个具有相同问题的帖子：
dpkg-deb：错误：安装 Ubuntu 15.10 后，子进程 paste 被信号（管道断裂）杀死
更新：
我使用 dpkg --purge --force-all 手动逐个删除了所有有问题的软件包。据我所知，apt-get 现在可以正常工作了。希望当我重新安装 texlive 时一切都会好起来。
答案1
我以更简单的方式解决了这个问题，只是
sudo dpkg --force-all --purge texlive-latex-base-doc
此后，我就能成功完成更新。
答案2
我遇到了类似的问题。就我而言，我必须运行
sudo dpkg --purge --force-all texlive-xetex
sudo dpkg --purge --force-all texlive-math-extra
正如 @mysonbort 所提到的。这两个包不知何故产生了冲突。删除它们后
sudo apt-get -f install
工作顺利。
答案3
我在从 14.04 升级到 15.10 时遇到了完全相同的问题。按照 OP 的思路，我通过运行以下命令解决了此问题：
sudo apt-get purge texlive* context dvipng feynmf fragmasater latex* luatex musixtex pmx propser tex4ht* tipa
加上我在 apt-get purge 命令上反复执行时会出现的一些其他依赖项。清除所有与 tex 相关的依赖项后，我能够运行 dist-upgrade 而不会出现任何错误，然后再次干净地安装 texlive-full。可能不太美观，但很有效。
