I tried removing both packages using apt-get remove and apt-get clean and autoremove, tried to update and dist-upgrade and i would still get the same error.
Also tried rebooting the system several times.
Can anyone please help me? I've been googling this the whole day. Either I cant find the thing I'm looking for or I can't understand what the solution is.
