Faulty Software Updater on 16.04

Hello.

I am running UbuntuMATE 16.04 on at least two different computers.

For a while now, the Software Updater (which reappears daily, due to
using the panel applet) shows a window with the heading "Not all
updates can be installed".

The window does not provide a button "Show details", and, does not
allow me to copy and paste the text that is displayed in the window.

The only options available (apart from simply clicking the cross box,
to close the window, which I have had to do, each time the window
appears, as no other safe option is available) do not provide safe
options whereby I would be confident that whatever it does, will not
harm the system.

Can this be fixed?
