I am unable to install any new software, and any apt-get command returns error code 1. In the Ubuntu Software Center, I get the error "New software can't be installed, because there is a problem with the software currently installed. Do you want to repair this problem now?" And if I click repair, nothing happens. I am afraid that it is related to Codeblocks, which was recently installed. I have restarted numerous times, as other threads related to the same problem suggested, and I have followed many of their commands. It seemed to work for them, but it does nothing for me. Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit.

sudo apt-get -f install returns:
