[SOLVED] Error during update of webmin-virtualmin-awstats

Hi. I am showing that there is an update for webmin-virtualmin-awstats to a new version 5.6. However, The update is failing on both my live and test servers with the same information:

Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
webmin-virtualmin-awstats : Depends: webmin-cron but it is not installable
                             Depends: webmin-software but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

The error is exactly the same on both systems and I have ensured all packages (using Virtualmin Package Updates) are installed an updated; webmin-virtualmin-awstats is the only update showing.

Is this a bug or is the package broken (as suggested in the error part of the message)?

Thanks for any help to get this resolved.

Try it again. (Make sure to check for new updates. You need 5.6-2.)

I know it's fixed on CentOS, but my Debian/Ubuntu VMs seem to have lost network connectivity and I'm too tired to figure out why right now. So, let me know if it's fixed or not, if you're on any apt-get distro.

OK on Ubuntu 16.04, but fails on Ubuntu 12.04 that stays at 5.5

Ubuntu 12.04 is EOL. You aren't getting any updates for any of your system packages, and thus your system is already exploitable.

The virtualmin-universal repo, however, should work for any Ubuntu/Debian distro. Run apt-get update before doing the upgrade.
