I am getting following error while trying to run sudo apt upgrade

Update:

If I try to remove libopenshot-audio7 via sudo apt remove libopenshot-audio7 following error shows.

(Whatever I am trying with apt this error shows whether remove, install or upgrade)

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libopenshot20 : Depends: libopenshot-audio8 but it is not installed
 python3-openshot : Depends: libopenshot-audio8 but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

So then I ran apt --fix-broken install after that following error is showing

  • What version of Ubuntu? Did you do an apt update before the apt upgrade? – David Sep 04 '21 at 13:04

  • You may have to remove libopenshot-audio7 first, as there are conflicting files. – Archisman Panigrahi Sep 04 '21 at 13:22
  • @ArchismanPanigrahi I tried but it shows same error. I have updated the question. If there any ways to remove that package please do let me know :) – Hello World Sep 04 '21 at 13:27
  • The Ubuntu 20.04 repositories include neither libopenshot-audio7 nor libopenshot-audio8. You are not using a version of Openshot provided by Ubuntu. In other words, you created the problem for yourself by going outside the Ubuntu repositories. One solution is to uninstall ALL non-Ubuntu Openshot packages, and install the tested, compatible Ubuntu version instead. If you wish to continue using the non-Ubuntu version, your question should include details on your install method and deb sources -- you're asking us to do a bunch of research for you, so you need to help with a starting point. – user535733 Sep 04 '21 at 13:30

    @user535733 I got the point Thanks :) now if i want to remove any non-ubuntu package how can i do that? I am getting error while removing any package by using apt remove package_name! I am stuck here. Pls help :( – Hello World Sep 04 '21 at 13:37
  • Wrong question. You already know that all your Openshot packages are non-UBuntu. You should be asking "How do I remove all openshot-related packages?" Try apt autoremove openshot --simulate to see what such a removal would look like. Advice: Learn to love the --simulate flag before you muck up your system even worse. – user535733 Sep 04 '21 at 14:29
