Something happened to my laptop during an update it seems and I have been experiencing MANY issues with apt-get and dpkg trying to update packages due to unmet dependencies.

Everything I have found so far has not helped, but I have improved my situation slightly. I have tried dpkg --configure, apt-get --fix-broken-install, have tried very command recommended and then some.

I am about to reinstall but I recently got my desktop the way I want it and really don't want to lose the progress.

OS: Ubuntu 18.04LTS with Pop! GTK Theme

Computer: Asus G75VW with core i7 3430qm, and Nvidia Geforce Gtx 660M
