dpkg: error processing package debconf (--configure):
 package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should
 reinstall it before attempting configuration
Errors were encountered while processing:
 debconf
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Debconf isn't broken. You have a broken install of a package you attempted to install that doesn't have the libraries properly installed. Debconf is informing you of this. This is indicated in the message, showing that you have 1 not fully installed or removed. It can't remove the packages that you have manually installed because they were not installed using the Debconf (apt install) system which will include a configuration of where all the files that were added during the install process, where they are, and which files are depended on the installation.

You can still install and remove applications from the repository using either the GUI software center or the command-line apt install.

To remove the errors and notices of your output, you would have to manually remove the failed package that you manually attempted to install.

How to remove manually installed applications

This can be done by studying the files in the package you downloaded and looking for a method provided by the distributor of how to uninstall the package. This will usually be found in a Readme.txt or Install.txt file with instructions of how to remove or how to install.

In many circumstances the the library's author will provide a method for removing the file such as sudo make uninstall. The make command has a dry run option that doesn't make any changes to the system, but shows what it will do. You can run:

$ make -n install

Then manually remove the problem files. You will have to be careful with the files you remove. If the files are used with a different package, the other package may become broken. In that case, if you develop a problem with a different package you can bring the other package back to it's proper state with:

$ sudo apt install --reinstall [package name]

In this case running this will properly install python from the repository:

$ sudo apt install --reinstall python

Despite this is a bit overkill, a quick fix for this problem is to use conda:

Download and install

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
# Follow the prompts on the installer screens
# Close and then re-open your terminal window

A base environment should be activated, check which python version is installed, and in case you need a different version just install it with conda and activate it:

# install
conda create --name base_python2 python=2
# or
conda create --name base_python3 python=3

# activate env
conda activate base_python2
# or
conda activate base_python3

Note: if you want to set a default python version different from the one it was stablished to be the base env, you can add the activation line into your .bashrc.
