Trying to configure certain aspect of ubuntu and mistakenly attempted to
install webmin. Now I am hung trying to install or uninstall anything.
This is what I get.

chris at ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get -f remove webmin

Package webmin is not installed, so not removed
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
webmin-apache: Depends: webmin (>= 1.140) but it is not going to be
installed
webmin-core: Depends: webmin but it is not going to be installed
webmin-cpan: Depends: webmin (>= 1.140) but it is not going to be
installed
webmin-inetd: Depends: webmin (>= 1.140) but it is not going to be
installed
webmin-mysql: Depends: webmin (>= 1.140) but it is not going to be
installed
webmin-software: Depends: webmin (>= 1.140) but it is not going to be
installed
webmin-squid: Depends: webmin (>= 1.140) but it is not going to be
installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).
