Background: I installed deps trying to get a Rust game engine working. During the process, I saw my icons on left side tabbar flick out for my browser, replaced with a standard icon. I resolved the dependency issues, got the game engine running.
On reboot, I got a TTY and logged in manually. apt get update, autoremove, dkpgs commands later, I tried installing lightdm. That broke my system further, as now the system gets stuck on loading screen. Ctrl+alt+f3 brings me to a blinking cursor.
Using escape on startup, I can enter recovery mode for linux 6. I'm logged in as root and unable to install gnome-shell, which I think I need to restore my GUI.
gnome-shell depends: evolution-data-server (>= 3.33.1) but it is not goign to be installed.. same for gnome-settingfs-daemon, libpulse-mainloop-glib0
Trying to install the lastone, "unmet dependencies: libpulse-mainloop-lglib0: Depends: libpulse0 (= 1:13.99.1-1ubuntu3.8) but 1:13.99.1-1ubuntu3.12 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems
How do I fix this dependency hell and restore my ability to login through a GUI?
