Usually, with issues like this, it means that Apt is having difficulties with one or more packages. Please run the following:
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo dpkg -a --configure
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -f
These should solve your dependency issues. If not, then we'll need to do a little digging. If these steps don't solve the issue, then please copy the output from the above commands and paste them into pastebin or a similar server(They're free). We can troubleshoot further from there.
