Ubuntu
vte2.91 package

broken packages and dependency issue

Asked by Ethan Lin

This is the error that Software Updater gave me:
Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f
Transaction failed: The package system is broken
 The following packages have unmet dependencies:

libvte-2.91-0: Depends: libvte-2.91-common (= 0.60.0-2ubuntu1) but 0.59.91-0ubuntu2 is installed
               Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.12.4) but 2.35.1-1ubuntu1 is installed
               Depends: libc6 (>= 2.28) but 2.31-0ubuntu6 is installed
               Depends: libcairo2 (>= 1.10.0) but 1.16.0-4ubuntu1 is installed
               Depends: libfribidi0 (>= 1.0.0) but 1.0.8-2 is installed
               Depends: libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.52.0) but 2.64.1-1 is installed
               Depends: libgnutls30 (>= 3.6.10) but 3.6.11.1-2ubuntu2 is installed
               Depends: libgtk-3-0 (>= 3.20) but 3.24.14-1ubuntu1 is installed
               Depends: libicu66 (>= 66.1-1~) but 66.1-2ubuntu2 is installed
               Depends: libpango-1.0-0 (>= 1.22.0) but 1.44.7-1ubuntu3 is installed
               Depends: libpangocairo-1.0-0 (>= 1.22.0) but 1.44.7-1ubuntu3 is installed
               Depends: libpcre2-8-0 (>= 10.22) but 10.34-7 is installed
               Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 5.2) but 10-20200324-1ubuntu1 is installed
               Depends: libsystemd0 (>= 220) but 245.2-1ubuntu2 is installed
               Depends: zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.0) but 1:1.2.11.dfsg-2ubuntu1 is installed
 I have no idea how this happened... What do I do? I tried apt but its not letting me.

Ok, it seems that the dependency problem is solved. Updating should work again.

For the warnings
W: Conflicting distribution: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu devel-security InRelease (expected devel-security but got focal)
You should edit your /etc/apt/sources.list configuration file and replace all occurrences of "devel" by "focal"
