I also tried to switch to the main ubuntu server for maybe the local mirror did not yet get the gcc update, but apt does not want to install anything more from main.

When booted into the new kernel, got super low resolution and nvidia- settings was missing most of its functionality - could not change resolution. Rebooted into 4.4.0-112 kernel and all was well. The root cause of the problem has been found to be installing the -116 kernel without a sufficiently updated version of gcc. In my case, my system received the gcc update AFTER the kernel update. Uninstalling the -116 kernel and reinstalling it with the updated version of gcc solved the problem for me.
