OMSA broken package Ubuntu Trusty

Hi,

This seems to be common issue, but I was not able to find any satisfing 
answer to solve this problem.

After running:
     # aptitude update
and
     # aptitude -y safe-upgrade

I broke my local apt system:
dpkg -l *srvadmin-* |grep -E "^pF|^ii|^ri"
pF  srvadmin-deng 8.3.0-1                                 amd64        
Dell OpenManage Data Engine
ii  srvadmin-jre 8.3.0-1                                 amd64        
Oracle Java Runtime Environment
ii  srvadmin-omacs 8.3.0-2                                 amd64        
Dell OpenManage Server Administrator OMACS
ii  srvadmin-omcommon 8.3.0-2                                 
amd64        Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Common Framework
ii  srvadmin-omilcore 8.3.0                                   
all          Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Install Core
ri  srvadmin-rac-components 7.4.0-1                                 
amd64        Remote Access Controller SNMP components for Server 
Administrator.
ri  srvadmin-rac4-populator 7.4.0-1                                 
amd64        Remote Access Controller data populator components for 
Server Administrator.
ri  srvadmin-racadm4 7.4.0-1                                 
amd64        The command line user interface to the Remote Access 
Controller (RAC).
ri  srvadmin-tomcat 7.4.0-1                                 amd64        
Secure Port Server and Server Administrator GUI

I tried both 740 and 830 version of OpenManage in my apt sources:
deb http://linux.dell.com/repo/community/ubuntu trusty openmanage/740
As described here:
http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-poweredge/2016-May/050554.html

Trying to remove / downgrade or upgrade did not fix that issue.
I also tried many manual tricks like '--download-only' and then, manual 
install/purge (eg: 
http://askubuntu.com/questions/438345/how-to-remove-install-a-package-that-is-not-fully-installed 
, 
http://askubuntu.com/questions/525088/how-to-delete-broken-packages-in-ubuntu). 
I am switching indefinitely from a broken package to another:
  srvadmin-isvc -> srvadmin-rac-components -> srvadmin-deng
...

BTW, I saw this warning on main repository webpage 
(http://linux.dell.com/repo/community/ubuntu/):


      Important note for upgrading

If you are upgrading, in step 4, you must use*apt-get 
install/<meta-package name>/*or*apt-get dist-upgrade*. Do not 
use*apt-get upgrade*, as doing so will not upgrade all the necessary 
packages.



However, this warning is not realistic in a production environment...


Moreover, now there is ubuntu xenial and the only availables repository 
are for trusty.




Any help would be *very* useful...

Best regards,
Remy
