After I upgraded 20.04 to 22.04 I cannot install new software because the old linux-image-5.13.0-23-generic (5.13.0-23.23) cannot be removed. During the upgrade I told the system to keep old stuff, which was probably the cause of this problem. When I try to install new software, I get the following output:

I tried sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-5.13.0-23-generic and sudo apt-get install -f but I get the same output as above.
Thanks. Unfortunately I had to reinstall Ubuntu 22.04 because I caught a trojan horse and could not install ClamAV because of this kernel problem. I did not dare to use ubuntu to try your suggestion. I will leave this queston for a few days before removing it.
