<p>Thanks Ted</p>
<p>It seems that the i386 packages are a big problem (or were when
they were still installed). Ted, do you not have any *i386
packages? I can't remember if I mentioned that I tried to install
Wine to see what would happen and I got the same error re:
libtiff5:i386 circular dependencies as well as libdeflate0:i386.
Had to fumble through pkg mgr. to try and fix broken dependencies
as well as running: apt --fix-missing install. After several
efforts I got down to one broken package, libtiff5:i386, and ran
apt --fix-missing install and as you saw very many *i386 pkgs
became "obsolete". Don't know why running the command again made
so many non-i386 pkgs 'obsolete'.</p>
<p>I can back up 'Home', write all of my saved passwords in Chromium
to a spread sheet and save those too, to a drive. I'm not going to
shutdown or restart until I can get everything backed up that's
important. I might back up /usr too to keep record of what apps
are installed.</p>
<p>It's hard to imagine what I may lose by doing a fresh install and
adding back data I've backed up. I guess there's no less painful
way?</p>
<p>Much appreciated<br>
</p>

NMGLUGers, This circular chasing of several packages may have
resulted from multiple repositories and goals for adding
software. 1) LTS with Ubuntu Exteded support, 2) Cairo Dock
ppa, 3) Several 3rd party browser ppa experiments, 4) Other
3rd party software and Ubuntu Backports. Also add Wine to the
mix. The potential for confusion is high as is the
inevitability of a conflict. <br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">At one point
three items held up the updates: libdeflate0:i386, libroc0.3
and libtiff5:i386. Only one of these is in the Ubuntu "focal"
20.04 repository on my machine of that date. 'libroc0.3' is in
"noble" - Ubuntu 24.04, due out very soon, but the backport
may be an issue. There is a libtiff5 in focal, but his may not
be from there. I had a look at the update settings and Brian
and I made a few less adventurous unsuccessful attempts to
resolve this.</div>

definitely time for a backup of important items, forward

address your browser saved settings and extensions and such

<p>Hello All,</p>
<p>This is a true saga and if no one wants to read the
numerous chapters I wouldn't blame you! I made some sort
of progress in getting my broken pkgs fixed but I fear at
a huge price. Many pkgs are now "not needed" though I have
not removed them. I don't know why thry would now not be
needed and what that could do. I don't need to autoremove
them The info is below. My comments are bold.<br>
