I tried to make update on my system (4.15.0-29-generic #31-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 17 15:37:27 UTC 2018 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux ) via software updater but the update failed. So I tried to make the update via apt-get command but also not successfully. There was this output:

Check, if you have all needed folders in enviroment PATH like this:
# sudo echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
If not, you need correct this through adding appropriate folders to PATH variable.
Additionally check syntax at this file:
# sudo nano /etc/environment
All missing a " must be there.
