First attempt:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
libpcap-dev : Depends: libpcap0.8-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Ok, so I should install libpcap0.8-dev:
sudo apt install libpcap0.8-dev
Result:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
libpcap0.8-dev : Depends: libpcap0.8 (= 1.8.1-6) but 1.8.1-6ubuntu1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
So I need to install libpcap0.8:
sudo apt install libpcap0.8
Result:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libpcap0.8 is already the newest version (1.8.1-6ubuntu1).
0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 1377 not to upgrade.
Yay! It worked, so now all I need to do:
sudo apt install libpcap0.8-dev
Result:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
libpcap0.8-dev : Depends: libpcap0.8 (= 1.8.1-6) but 1.8.1-6ubuntu1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Oh. Any ideas?
