Software Updater performed a partial upgrade today and removed the gnome-tweak-tool and I think one of the depencies - gir1.2-handy-0.0
. I've tried installing in the Terminal and with Synaptic, but I got a broken package error with both. Installed gir1.2-handy-0.0
, but still get this error when installing the tweak tool:
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gnome-tweak-tool : Depends: gnome-tweaks but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I also tried:
Fixing the broken install
sudo apt --fix-broken install
Purging the tweak tool and reinstalling it:
sudo apt-get purge gnome-tweak-tool sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool
- Installing the package from the Focal repository gnome-tweaks (3.34.0-2ubuntu1) [universe]
Still getting the same result.
