I'm running on Ubuntu 16.04 with 4.16.3 Kernel, both on my desktop and laptop, every time I try to upgrade to a newer kernel with UKUU fails the configuration of the package and return me this error (example installing 4.16.6):
dpkg: error processing package linux-image-unsigned-4.16.6-041606-generic (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
And the only solution is to remove it, how can i solve it?
For dkms support of nVidia, bbswitch and virtual box compiling use:
sudo apt install libelf-dev
To circumvent newer linux-header installation errors download: libssl1.1
Download the newer kernels you want and your ~/Downloads should look like this:
$ ll *.deb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rick rick 1128420 Oct 28 08:33 libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4.1_amd64.deb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rick rick 10741128 Oct 28 08:05 linux-headers-4.14.78-041478_4.14.78-041478.201810200529_all.deb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rick rick 1052200 Oct 28 08:05 linux-headers-4.14.78-041478-generic_4.14.78-041478.201810200529_amd64.deb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rick rick 8243552 Oct 28 08:05 linux-image-unsigned-4.14.78-041478-generic_4.14.78-041478.201810200529_amd64.deb

Now you should be able to successfully install:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Kernels 4.14.xx, 4.16.xx and 4.17.rc(xx) all share the same bug over this last week; April 24-30, 2018.
I just tried 4.14.38 tonight and it exhibits the same errors as 4.14.36 and 4.14.37 as documented in this bug report.
In my case tonight the errors are:

To fix errors I tried sudo apt install -f but it won't fix it plus causes a "crash report":
Using sudo rm-kernels I removed 4.14.38 as much as I could:
This time around only the headers were successfully removed:
