<p>Thanks Robert! All help is much appreciated. I don't really know
how brave I am. Can't I run a simulation, as it were? I'm sorry
for my ignorance! I see this in the man pages for apt:</p>
<p> full-upgrade (apt-get(8))<br>
full-upgrade performs the function of upgrade but will
remove<br>
currently installed packages if this is needed to
upgrade the<br>
system as a whole.</p>
<p>I wonder what the consequences would be for this command?<br>
</p>

<div>I am not suggesting that the solution in the above thread
will work nor that it won't put your system into an even more
broken state. Also, I have no way to test it because my
system is not the same as yours. So, please proceed with
caution.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But if you wish to give it a try, it would seem that you
would run this:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>sudo dpkg --force depends -P libtiff5:i386<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Good luck and let us know what you try and how it goes.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards,</div>
<div>- Robert</div>

<p>Hello all! <br>
</p>
<p>I haven't seen any messages from the group so I don't
know if it still exists. I miss Ted's summaries and input.
So I feel bad that my first communication in a very long
time is me carping about a problem and I hope you folks
can have tolerance for me!</p>
<p>ASUS laptop running Ubuntu 20.04 with Mate desktop</p>
<p>I ran a normal upgrade as indicated by the package
manager, which is at least every couple of days if not
daily. I ran the upgrade and all seemed fine. However, an
error symbol popped up in the panel and it noted there was
an apt error and to run "apt --fix-broken install". I've
done this many times in the past and the dependencies or
conflicts are fixed. However, not this time. Here's the
output of that command:</p>

<p>It seems like a circular problem of the libtiff5 packages
breaking each other. I've considered removing one or the
other but the additional packages to be removed scares me
as so many packages depend on them.</p>
