my apt-get is broken ;_;

 

I tried to install a bunch of things a while ago that seem to have broken it. I don't really remember what I did but now it won't let me install anything. this is what it does when I try to install some package:

 

 

and then when I try to fix whatever the fuck it did:

 

 

Notice how it wants to autoremove kali-linux-full, kali-desktop-gnome, and the x11 server thing, which if those were actually removed would brick my install.

 

What the fucking fuck, how did I even do this, halp me for I am not good at computer thx

That's sweet, there are two likely outcomes here

a) The repository has uninstallable packages and you're fucked

b) Some package incompatibility is in the system and you can recover

Try doing these two:

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

and

sudo apt-get upgrade

If one of them let you do it, go ahead then re-try what you were trying to do (remove unnecessary packages install a new one w.e)

But I don't get it. Why should the whole thing be broken just because there are some packages that can't be installed!! Is it not possible for the program to ignore the uninstallable ones and work around it, so that you are still able to install things??

and how did this even happen in the first place, I don't see why anything shouldn't have installed, everything was up to date and the latest version ffs!!

 

sometimes working is too much to ask

Why are you concerned of fixing this?  Don't you want to die?
