I'm trying to remove a package: sudo apt-get remove pgbouncer
but then I got the following error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-server : Depends: linux-image-server (= 3.2.0.44.53) but 3.2.0.45.54 is to be installed
Depends: linux-headers-server (= 3.2.0.44.53) but 3.2.0.45.54 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
The I tried sudo apt-get -f install
but then I get:

Version of linux-image-server on system is 3.2.0.45.54.
linux-server depends on linux-headers-server (= 3.2.0.44.53); however:
Version of linux-headers-server on system is 3.2.0.45.54.

After trying
and
the problem of a broken package still exist the solution is to edit the dpkg status file manually.
(you can use vi or nano instead of gedit)
Locate the corrupt package, and remove the whole block of information about it and save the file.
