I go to synaptic package manager and I get this message.
"You have 2 broken packages on your system"
I go to the "Broken" filter and it comes up with 2 packages.
1. Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP
2. Generic Linux kernel image
I hilite #1 and it tells me
"You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install
the linux-generic meta-package, which will ensure that upgrades work
correctly, and that supporting packages are also installed."
I search "linux-generic meta-package" and a list comes up but not with "meta-package" in it.
Can this be affecting my "Install Updates" which, recently, has had no new updates.
-
Yes, this will be affecting your Install Updates. Open a terminal, and do the following :
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade - y
and post the output here.

Looks like you're out of space. Run Lite Tweaks, Kernel Remover. Remove all unused kernels. Then run the previous commands again.

Followed instructions. However, when Tweaks was finished I opened it again and the list remained. It appears nothing was removed. I tried again with with same results. Out of curiosity I went to Auotremove Packages. It came back with "An Error Has Occurred" (no error listed, just the note).
I then reran the code: the result follows...

Ok amigo. The problem is that you've ran out of space in your /boot because of all the installed images and apt cannot fix it... at least not in its current state because we can't force the install yet.
Here is what we will do next. We will use dpgk instead. This is a little drastic and can be dangerous at times but it is what will help us this time around. From what you have posted, you are currently running kernel 4.4.0-75-generic.
So, we will delete some of those kernels images you are not using to free up some space first... from Terminal:
sudo dpkg --force-all -P linux-image-4.4.0-62-generic
sudo dpkg --force-all -P linux-image-4.4.0-63-generic
sudo dpkg --force-all -P linux-image-4.4.0-64-generic
sudo dpkg --force-all -P linux-image-4.4.0-66-generic
That should go trough without errors. Then, since some space has been recovered at this point, you will fix the umet dependencies:
sudo apt-get -f autoremove
The above should force the removal of dependencies this time around.
Finally, clean up:
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Let us know.

No broken packages showing. I'll go through stuff tomorrow and verify. Thx and blessings to ya ralphy.

That's great @amigo , you're awesome! :)
To recover some more space and prevent this from happening again any time soon, I'd use Lite Tweaks now that no broken packages are showing to remove old kernels in the system that are not longer being used. Usually, I leave no more than 1 or 2 previous kernels in the system. You could do the same if that fits your needs.
All the best!
