  • FYI: Lubuntu 18.04 LTS is no longer supported; refer https://lubuntu.me/bionic-eol/ or https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2020/08/14/ubuntu-18-04-5-lts-released/ where you'll note only Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Desktop & Ubuntu Cloud come with 5 years of support; flavors had shorter lives. I'd suggest using ubuntu-support-status to assess the security status of your actual install. Your question is still on-topic here, but consider how much security matters to you and the results of prior command. You're now using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with LXDE (not Lubuntu). – guiverc Apr 20 '22 at 10:43
  • Your details provided in the neofetch output don't match a supported Ubuntu system; matching instead an off-topic Ubuntu based system instead. Please refer https://askubuntu.com/help/on-topic, Ubuntu and official flavors of Ubuntu (https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours) are on-topic on this site. The on-topic link provides alternate SE sites for non-Ubuntu OSes. – guiverc Apr 20 '22 at 10:44

    Does this answer your question? How do I resolve unmet dependencies after adding a PPA? – karel Apr 21 '22 at 05:46
  • @karel please post your comment as answer, it resolves the issue for my 22.04 LTS – Sayyed Dawood Jun 05 '22 at 13:44
  • @SayyedDawood If the above link (2 comments above this comment) answered your question please click the "Yes" option to the right of "Does this answer your question?" in the light blue banner above your question. This will single-handedly close your question as a duplicate of How do I resolve unmet dependencies after adding a PPA?. – karel Jun 05 '22 at 14:36
  • @karel I am sorry I could not find that option as might be I did not post this Question. I tried to flag it as duplicate but could not. – Sayyed Dawood Jun 06 '22 at 12:12
  • Usually it works, but this time it didn't. Maybe it's a site bug. – karel Jun 06 '22 at 12:13
