This package killing apt update capabilities.

Asked by Panoplos

I am now running into an issue where I cannot install or remove other packages because indicator-bluetooth is saying it has unmet dependencies, as follows:

===

⟩ sudo apt-get remove python3-gi
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
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:
 indicator-bluetooth : Depends: unity-control-center but it is not going to be installed or
                                gnome-control-center but it is not going to be installed or
                                ubuntu-system-settings but it is not going to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

However, my stystem has ubuntu-system-settings isntalled.

===

⟩ apt search ubuntu-system-settings | grep installed
