While trying to update ubuntu I am facing this problem, don't much idea how to address this?

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
root@server1:/home/pawan# sudo dpkg --configure -a
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libssl-dev:
 libssl-dev depends on libssl1.0.0 (= 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.38); however:
  Version of libssl1.0.0 on system is 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.36.
dpkg: error processing libssl-dev (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libssl-dev
root@server1:/home/pawan#

As per the answer I ran the command but faced with this problem.

pawan@server1:~$ sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0 openssl

Open terminal and type :

 sudo apt -f install libssl-dev

 sudo apt update

If it doesn't work :

   sudo apt-get install --reinstall libssl-dev

  • Emad Arshad Alam - I updated the question with the output of the command you suggest. – Joshi Sep 28 '16 at 20:50
  • Install synaptic package manager and remove everything related to 'libssl' which is installed on your system. Now, again using synaptic package manager install the following packages "libssl-dev","libssl-doc","libssl1.00" and "libssl1.00:386".These are the packages installed in my PC related to libssl. Ask if you don't get anything. – Emad Arshad Alam Sep 30 '16 at 17:00
  • @Emad Arshad Alam dont use words like try,this should...in answer if you aren't sure post it as comment instead! – minigeek Oct 05 '16 at 09:20
  • @minigeek I research for the problem when all the hit and trial methods have failed. That's why my answers include "try" because there still was window for the trial method open. Since, the guy didn't reply I didn't change my answer. But, anyways I'll keep your suggestion in mind. – Emad Arshad Alam Oct 05 '16 at 10:53
