Is there a command that can let me just force everything to the current stable release without me having to go through the whole install-from-usb-stick thing?
I recently did a silly thing: upgraded my system Python installation via a PPA. That meant that a `do-release-upgrade` took me to a version of Python that was slightly behind the one installed via PPA. I had all kinds of problems, sounding similar to yours. This post put me on the right track, allowed me to fix it quite painlessly: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/10b9rsr/comment/j4dqhqx Lessons learnt: * mess with Python in a venv * man apt-patterns * apt mark minimize-manual I wonder if this will produce more legible output: apt list ?broken rb
