apt-get update problems with INDI (Unmet dependencies) was created by Tom Gwilym

Hey guys,
A while back I installed the latest KStars or maybe it was Stellarium? That had the INDI drivers included. Since then when I do the apt-get upgrade/install I get a message about unmet dependencies and I can't get further.
This is the result:
tegwilym@Tom-Ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade
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:
 indi-full : Depends: libindi1 (>= 1.2) but 1.1.0-1ubuntu1 is installed
 libindi-dev : Depends: libindi1 (= 1.6.0+r3702~201801031125~ubuntu16.04.1) but 1.1.0-1ubuntu1 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
Running the "-f" option doesn't do anything to fix the problem. Is there a way that I can remove INDI from my computer? I've checked other messages in this forum with similar problems and their fixes don't work either. I'm currently running Ubuntu 16.10 and will upgrade to 18 LTS, but just skipping 17.x for now since it seems to be a mediocre update. I do hope to get deep into INDI eventually, when I set up a new observatory (probably with a NexDome) since I plan on moving and will probably sell/donate my Technical Innovations dome (which isn't supported). I really want to get away from Windows 7 and go totally Linux eventually!

Any ideas how I can just remove it for now so I can run updates on my OS?
Thanks,
Tom

Tom,
you can download and try my open project "Ubuntu Astronomy 16.04" (64-bit).
IMHO, it can help you on your Linux newbie road :)

On the other hand, you can use synaptic, if you want to delete this old version libindi1 (1.1.0-1ubuntu1).

Open the terminal and run:
sudo apt-get install synaptic
 
sudo synaptic

Tried this and the previous suggestion. Still the same thing.

I already have! Excellent variation of Ubuntu. I have it as a dual boot on my laptop. Eventually I'll probably try dual booting with Windows 7 (yuck!) on my observatory computer. I just would have to reboot to Windows to control my dome since I don't see any support in INDI for the Technical Innovations dome. :(

Thanks for your work on Ubuntu Astronomy, I really do like it, and hopefully will be the main OS in my observatory one of these days! :)

Tried Synaptic and get this familiar message.

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:

 synaptic : Depends: libept1.5.0 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Seems that the INDI problem is blocking me from installing any "apt-get install xxxx" packages.
