Try sudo apt-get upgrade ( or dist-upgrade if available). Update only refreshes the package lists so you might need some of those to meet the required dependencies. If that fails you might need to force remove some older versions and reinstall (can occasionally happen in some distros). Hope that helps.

Oh I missed the Cordova part when reading the first time, sorry. It’s likely not an issue on the apt-get since as far as I know Cordova isn’t installed that way. Here is link to the install and configure process. https://codeburst.io/configuring-cordova-for-android-development-on-linux-6ee4a28cd432
