I changed my default Ubuntu source list to change the dist name to be xenial
instead of artful
since support is gone.
I ran:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
$ sudo apt-get autoremove
And it updated with success all (except rabbitmq/nvidia/wireless-regdb) my packages.
My issue is that now a lot of my packages are broken and I can't install without fixing the issues.
Error below:

I have tried
$ sudo apt-get clear cache
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall <broken package>
$ sudo apt-get install --fix-broken
Without success.
Do I need to apt-get purge <broken package>
? It saying it will remove a lot of vital packages and it scares me a bit when trying to do so on python3 for example
