Somewhere along the way I corrupted a system image file installing all

What symptom are you seeing?  There is probably a simple fix.

If apt is complaining then often
sudo apt-get install -f
will fix it.

It seems to be that the problem starts with linux-image-extra-1.13.0-37-generic 
does not exist even though the system insists it is installed.  versions -36, 
-38, and -39 are intact.

At this time I have to figure out how to actually put -37 back before I can 
proceed.  Or get Ubuntu to over look it and use -38 or -39.  dpkg seems to 
require it, so somewhere there is a configuration file I need to change.

Colin:

Sorry it took me so long to respond.

I managed to corrupt Ubuntu 16.40 so bad it would not boot. After 3 or 4 days 
of trying to reinstall Ubuntu I discovered it will not reinstall or do a new 
install on any drive that shows Ubuntu has been installed on before, even after 
formatting.  I ended up installing windozes on the Ubuntu drive then 
reinstalling Ubuntu.  Only good thing that happened is I have access to the old 
windoze drives again.  Just have to figure out how to either boot the Windoze 
drives or run Wine to get proprietary data files extracted (dll files embedded 
in Windoze so far prevent Wine from extracting the data).

Now that I have running server again I have to start from scratch installing 
network drives and printers before I can attempt a new build of GnuCash  (sorry 
as far as I am concerned GC insults the developers, it is GnuCash after all, 
show a LOT of respect to the team that designed and built such a versatile book 
keeping program.)  I mean who ever thought that a book keeping program can 
track cattle productivity.

Oh and Ubuntu 18.04 installs GnuCash 2.6.19.

Still trying to figure out all the changes Ubuntu 18.04 made.

Will try a new build after I catch up with all the books, and getting a coral 
rebuilt.
