You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ntp : Depends: libopts25 (>= 1:5.18.7) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
$ sudo apt-get install ntp libopts25
