If I am not mistaken I tried to upgrade apt to a higher version quite a while ago, but that didn't work out.
I did however try to run apt get again, but now apt fails.
apt: symbol lookup error: apt: undefined symbol: _ZN11CommandLine10GetCommandEPKNS_8DispatchEjPKPKc
apt-get: symbol lookup error: apt-get: undefined symbol: _ZN11CommandLine10GetCommandEPKNS_8DispatchEjPKPKc
This breaks my letsencrypt update script, and basically frustrating.
I was looking online but all I find is more and more dependencies that fail to install due to other dependencies mismatches, and an overall of 404 file not found on the web for these packages.
I am not an expert but I did understand that maybe using wget, dpkg may be of some use.
This is how my days look now:
sudo dpkg -i apt_1.2.29ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb
[sudo] password for teddy:

I have no idea how to completely revert back to my original apt version just to make things work back again. Any help would be appreciated.
