Hi, i have a conflict of packages i can’t solve. Can anyone suggest me what to do to fix it?
sudo apt-get upgrade

You might want to run ‘apt --fix-broken install’ to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgl1-mesa-dri : Depends: libglapi-mesa (= 22.0.1-1ubuntu2.1) but 22.1.3+git2206301758.a066287f1b5~j~mesarc0 is installed
Breaks: libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 (!= 22.0.1-1ubuntu2.1) but 22.1.3+git2207121916.6ddbd56174b~j~mesarc0 is installed
libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 : Breaks: libgl1-mesa-dri (!= 22.1.3+git2207121916.6ddbd56174b~j~mesarc0) but 22.0.1-1ubuntu2.1 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt --fix-broken install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).
When i try to fix it with suggested line this is output i get:

Because of that conflict i can’t install anything new or update existing packages. I need amd’s proprietary driver to stay installed for things i do.
It looks like you have an additional repository that is trying to add a version of mesa that has conflicts or unmet dependencies. We had issues like this reported before on 22.04.
Are you by any chance on 22.04? Did you add any PPAs to your install, or by any chance did you install CoreCtrl from our welcome - gaming app?
22.04, yes.
CoreCtrl i have installed from repository mentioned in dev’s installation guide, not from budgie welcome app. I didn’t even know welcome app has it.
Here is output of apt-get update:
Had to put it on pastebin as i can’t add more than two links per post.
If you installed CoreCtrl, try to disable or remove the PPA, then refresh your apt and run updates.
Please follow up if this solves the issue, if that is the case we might need to ask you to report upstream so any issue or conflict can be resolved.
If you want to check our welcome and what it can do for you and your gaming needs, you can check the two articles linked below:

When i removed ernst ppa and attempt to fix packages list of packages apt wants to remove is huge and critical:

How do i workaround this one? I can’t install anything without using --fix command.
So… any further suggestions for my case? I can’t figure it myself, considering to just reinstall OS from scratch and do things to avoid that conflict.
@spectatorx1 let me run some tests on your scenario and get back to you later today.
I was able to reproduce the issue you reported, on my AMD desktop.
In order to fix it, we need to purge the ppa, not just remove/disable it.
if we disable or remove a ppa, it does not remove the packages we previously installed from that ppa. Purging the ppa, removes/downgrades packages too.
So this is what I would do:
- backup your important files
- backup your important files
- backup your important files
- re-enable the ppa in this case ernstp/mesarc if you disabled or removed it.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ernstp/mesarc
- Refresh packages and attempt to upgrade. You should still be stuck with the same conflict. If you are, do not attempt to resolve.
sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade
- Purge the ppa now. This will remove all packages that came from that ppa and revert back to versions from your distribution repositories:
sudo ppa-purge ppa:ernstp/mesarc
- Reboot and Enjoy
PS
If for some reason something goes horribly wrong, and you are stuck with text based login, you still can recover your system without a full reinstall:
if you run this: sudo apt install xorg budgie-desktop-environment and reboot, you will be back to Ubuntu Budgie Desktop Environment. Other programs might be missing but then it would be an easier task to reinstall what you need.
I hope it helps.
Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately ppa-purge seems to be not working for some …n’ reason. Here is a log from my terminal:
Before that i didn’t have ppa-purge installed and because of that whole conflict i was unable to install ppa-purge via apt so i had to manually download as .deb file and install via dpkg. Downloaded from this link:
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/ppa-purge/ppa-purge_0.2.8+bzr63-0ubuntu1_all.deb
I see another ppa creating errors:
E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/krzemin/qnapi/ubuntu jammy Release' does not have a Release file.
Please remove/disable it and run sudo apt update again.
Thx, now i was able to purge ernst’s ppa but basically it has changed nothing as i have to nuke half of system anyway. This is after purge and reboot:
I wanted to post a link to pastebin but i received a message i can’t post link to that site. Why? Also my previous posts containing links to pastebin are hidden now. This makes no sense.
Discourse flagged pastebin as a possible spam site since you posted multiple links to it.
You should now be able to do this again.
Thank you! Now is all well.
