Ubuntu errors on missing packages like libaio1 libnss3-tools libncurses5

I was running from virtualbox on windows, but I kept getting errors on these packages missing even when I tried to force install them with – had to run “sudo apt –fix-broken install”

So, it does appear this “–fix-broken” switch resolved the issue… here are the errors I was getting BEFORE I ran –fix-broken.

apt-get install libaio1 libnss3-tools

You might want to run:
apt --fix-broken install
or
sudo apt --fix-broken install 
to correct these.
