errors while updating my PC












0














I have searched the whole internet including reading everything on google/askubuntu/all ubuntu communities), tried all the possible solution and still didn't figure it out (but I am not google so my indexing and searching algorithm skills might not be that good)



anyways to the point. I am trying to run apt-get update and then apt-get upgrade.



I get the following error:

I got the same error sometime back and if fixed it using a package named aptitude.



Run this sudo apt install aptitude
Then run sudo aptitude upgrade



It will give you possible solutions ignore the first and use the second.



Hope this will work for you too. 😊
