Description of my issue
I want to update and upgrade, then install other app.
apt update && apt dist-upgrade
I get an error message :
The following packages have unmet dependencies: firmware-linux-nonfree : Depends: firmware-misc-nonfree (= 20161130-5) but it is not installed firmware-ralink : Depends: firmware-misc-nonfree but it is not installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt --fix-broken install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).
apt --fix-broken install gives :

I’d don’t know how to repair firmware-misc-nonfree_20161130-5_all.deb to make it work.
Meh, yea … Basically this nonfree package conflicts with other stuff. Basically for now we tried to avoid as much installing it soooo … not sure how to fix your situation right now. Possibly if it’s easy to reinstall with non-free packages disabled, that would be the most straightforward fix
I tried to remove firmware-ralink and firmware-linux-nonfree and also firmware-linux-nonfree
I get :
apt remove --purge firmware-misc-nonfree

Reading state information… Done
Package ‘firmware-misc-nonfree’ is not installed, so not removed
You might want to run ‘apt --fix-broken install’ to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
firmware-linux-nonfree : Depends: firmware-misc-nonfree (= 20161130-5) but it is not going to be installed
firmware-ralink : Depends: firmware-misc-nonfree but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt --fix-broken install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).
Then, apt --fix-broken install :

If your problem is still unsolved, maybe you should try to use dpkg-divert against file /lib/firmware/mt7601u.bin.
It’s just a guess, I don’t know how to use dpkg-divert myself but it looks promising.
