update broken - libssl1.0.0 circular reference
From the Update Manager, when I click "Install Updates" a dialog appears with the following:
"The package system is broken
Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them, since they are a common source of problems.
Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f
Details
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libssl1.0.0: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14) but 2.15-0ubuntu10.3 is installed
libssl1.0.0:i386: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7) but 2.15-0ubuntu10.3 is installed
As instructed in the error message, from Terminal I executed:
$ sudo apt-get install -f
[sudo] password for hello:

The following extra packages will be installed:
libssl1.0.0:i386
The following packages will be upgraded:

1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 9 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.

After this operation, 4,096 B of additional disk space will be used.

E: Internal Error, No file name for libssl1.0.0
Launching the Software Center results in the following dialog to appear:
"Items cannot be installed or removed until the paclage catalog is repaired. Do you want to repair it now?
Once Update Manager has finished the repairs, you can close it and return to the store."
Clicking "Repair" displays the following dialog:
"Package operation failed
The installation or removal of a software package failed.

installArchives() failed: Error in function:
dpkg: error processing libssl1.0.0 (--configure):
libssl1.0.0:amd64 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.6 cannot be configured because libssl1.0.0:i386 is in a different version (1.0.1-4ubuntu5.5)
dpkg: error processing libssl1.0.0:i386 (--configure):
libssl1.0.0:i386 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.5 cannot be configured because libssl1.0.0:amd64 is in a different version (1.0.1-4ubuntu5.6)"
In an attempt at self-help, I read through other Launchpad entries and tried :
$ sudo apt-get autoclean
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
hello@Qwerty:~$ sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
Reading package lists... Done

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libssl1.0.0 : Breaks: libssl1.0.0:i386 (!= 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.6) but 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.5 is installed
libssl1.0.0:i386 : Breaks: libssl1.0.0 (!= 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.5) but 1.0.1-4ubuntu5.6 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
Questions:
1) I am running a 64 bit installation. Why is a "i386" library being referenced?
2) How do I tell who is referencing the libssl1.0.0 package?
3) The Update Manager error message suggests: "Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them...". As far as I know no third party repositories are used. Why doesn't it display entries that should be disabled?
4) Shouldn't the Software Center allow the removal of a package?
Kind regards,
John
