I am looking to remove all possible broken packages because yesterday I tried to download VM and also lutris, but now it is not working. How can I improve it?

I did this check:

sudo apt-get check

And:

W: Target Packages (contrib/binary-amd64/Packages) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target Packages (contrib/binary-all/Packages) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target Translations (contrib/i18n/Translation-en_US) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target Translations (contrib/i18n/Translation-en) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target DEP-11 (contrib/dep11/Components-amd64.yml) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target DEP-11 (contrib/dep11/Components-all.yml) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target DEP-11-icons-small (contrib/dep11/icons-48x48.tar) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target DEP-11-icons (contrib/dep11/icons-64x64.tar) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target DEP-11-icons-hidpi (contrib/dep11/icons-64x64@2.tar) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target CNF (contrib/cnf/Commands-amd64) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2
W: Target CNF (contrib/cnf/Commands-all) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:63 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list:2

I do not know what they mean.

  • If you have broken packages you have to reinstall them before removing. And while at that you should clean-up your software sources. – ChanganAuto Dec 14 '22 at 19:08

Use this script :

 #!/bin/bash 
 # Detect os codename 
 codename=$(awk '/UBUNTU_CODENAME=/' /etc/os-release | sed 's/UBUNTU_CODENAME=//' | sed 's/[.]0/./')

Replace sources.list


text="deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ $codename main universe restricted multiverse 
 deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ $codename main universe restricted multiverse 
 deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $codename-security main universe restricted multiverse 
 deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $codename-security main universe restricted multiverse 
 deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ $codename-updates main universe restricted multiverse 
 deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ $codename-updates main universe restricted multiverse"


sudo echo "$text" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list


Start upgrade


sudo apt update 
 sudo apt install -f 
 sudo apt upgrade 
 sudo apt dist-upgrade 
 sudo apt autoremove --purge
