apt - upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10 failed and broken dependencies

I tried running the upgrade from my Ubuntu 13.04 to 13.10 but it failed to upgrade a latex package with the error from [here] (Upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10 stops) and calmed to try to roll back. However the computer clams to be on 13.10.



When I try to run apt-get install I get:




    Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.

and when I try apt-get -f install I get the error:

I considered removing a re-downloading boost but don't what to make my system any weirder and less stable.



Any suggestions on the best way to fix this problem and any other the failed upgrade might have made?
