I'm trying to install the QGIS on my Ubuntu 16, but I'm not able to do it.
First, I've tried to uninstall any QGIS version on my Ubuntu, such as described here and here
After that, I tried to follow the QGIS Documentation and some other pages like here in order to install the QGIS, but to no avail. The console raises the following error:
$ sudo apt-get install qgis python-qgis qgis-plugin-grass
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
python-qgis is already the newest version (1:3.4.4+24xenial-ubuntugis-1).
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
qgis-plugin-grass : Depends: grass760 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Then I tried the following this solution, but the console raises the following error:
$ sudo aptitude install qgis python-qgis qgis-plugin-grass
python-qgis is already installed at the requested version (1:3.4.4+24xenial-ubuntugis-1)

And now on Ubuntu top menu shows the following error message: Error: BrokenCount > 0 and unmet dependencies
After that, I've tried to fix with this solution, but when I try to use the sudo apt-get install qgis python-qgis qgis-plugin-grass command again, the same error occurs, unfortunately (i.e. qgis-plugin-grass : Depends: grass760 but it is not installable).
Then, I tried to add the python3-qgis, but an error occurs as well:

Even with these errors, the QGIS was "installed", but I'm afraid that according to the above error, this installation may have a problem in the future.
Would anyone know what could be happening? And what could I do to fix it?
Thank you in advance.
EDIT 1:
When I tried to install just the qgis-plugin-grass package, I've figured out that this package was raising the error.
$ sudo apt-get install qgis-plugin-grass
