Hi , as the title says it all my CNR gives to me the same error FAILED TO CALCULATE DEPENDENCIES after i installed Extreme Racer not from Cnr

Now the CNR shows avaiable Update to Extreme racer ,but i get the same error too . When i try to uninstall it ,i get another error which is CNR RECEIVED A DPKG error package.

How to fix this , it seems so difficult to a newbie like me ???

Please help

I was able to remove Etracer data with the command sudo apt-get -f install and i removed all unneeded software. Now CNR works with the updates but ,when i try to download a software from CNR ,i get the error message of Cannot communicate with CNR server. I have CNR server configured which is USA server so i really don't understand ????????????????????????

This is the message I received after I entered that command
sudo dpkg --configure -a. I had attempted to install this program, and that was when this dependencies problem started. How can I fix this? Thanks!

migs@migscomputer:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
