  • The first fixes the broken package issue, then it updates and after that we do normal install assuming broken packages were fixed by the previous commands. The && means only run next command, if and only if previous one was successful.

    You have broken packages so use these steps:





    1. Fix broken packages:



      sudo apt -f install



    2. Update:



      sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade



    3. Now install normally:



      sudo apt install python3-pip



    4. Check if it installed:



      pip3 --version



    That should fix that.
