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

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
software-properties-common : Depends: python3-software-properties (= 0.96.24.32.9) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
$ sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found
Solution 6th :
i have run command $ sudo apt-get upgrade which executed successfully without returning an error. then i have run below command which returns same error.hence i have restart system and again run below command which is returning same error.

as it is showing kind of dependancy for Python 3 software properties, i suspect that it is related to issue for which i have raised question earlier (link of syntaxerror while setting up python3-aptdeamon) is it ??
7th solution :
after running command in comment box output is as follows :
$ grep -r ubuntu-wine /etc/apt --include="*.list"
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-wine-ubuntu-ppa-bionic.list:deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu bionic main

solution no 8 :
without restarting sudo apt-get dist-upgrade executed sucessfully. but sudo apt-get update returns error below.
