  • Run sudo apt-get update then try. I think you maybe have out of date repository information. – Thomas Ward Feb 09 '17 at 16:07

You need downgrade your libuuid1 version from 2.27.1-6ubuntu3.1 to 2.27.1-6ubuntu3.

You can use apt-get to do a downgrade, refer to this answer.

sudo apt-get install <package-name>=<package-version-number> OR
sudo apt-get -t=<target release> install <package-name>

If you are using synaptic package manager, you can also just simply select the package (in your case, search and select libuuid1), and go to menu Package > Force Version.. to choose the version you would like to install, then click Apply.
