 default-jre depends on default-jre-headless (= 1:1.7-43ubuntu3); however:
  Package default-jre-headless is not installed.

dpkg: error processing default-jre (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of default-jdk:
 default-jdk depends on default-jre (= 1:1.7-43ubuntu3); however:
  Package default-jre is not configured yet.

dpkg: error processing default-jdk (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 default-jre
 default-jdk

How can I solve this? Actually I had another problem ((Failing package manager?) ) and found a solution here, but then dpkg gives above error.

Just do the same as in the other question (Failing package manager?):

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get clean

sudo apt-get autoremove

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

sudo dpkg --configure -a

sudo apt-get install -f

Edit: oops, sorry, you did already do that. I recommend to skip the dpkg --configure -a and first do apt-get install -f.

If you don't have any man pages installed (often the case in docker containers as they strive to be as minimal as possible) creating the needed folder might help you further:

mkdir -p /usr/share/man/man1

This is due to the fact that it assumes said folder to usually be there, but doesn't take care of creating it if the folder is missing.
