I am having issues after sudo apt upgrade failed to install complete packages. I tried purging the ppa to revert the drivers to no avial.
Correcting dependencies... failed. The following packages have unmet dependencies: libgl1-mesa-dri : Depends: libdrm-amdgpu1 (>=

$ sudo dpkg --purge libdrm-common dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove libdrm-common which isn't installed
$ sudo ppa-purge ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers Updating packages lists PPA to be removed: oibaf graphics-drivers
Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: oibaf graphics-drivers
I tried purging and re-adding the ppa several times. I tried "-f install", "autoremove", "pkg --configure -a".
I tried fixing in synaptic, only to find more errors.
All I want to do at this point is get rid of this ppa & revert to the old packages.
I believe my problem lies here:

The Oibaf PPA is here.

EDIT:I have since wiped my hard drive and re-installed Ubuntu 17.10. And, I found a post explaining, "How To Install The Latest AMDGPU-PRO Drivers On Linux" but, I have not attempted to try it yet.
