CUDA can't be installed or uninstalled and dkpg can't install anything

When I do sudo apt --fix-broken install

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Any help would be appreciated, I'm new to this

Also tried

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get -f install

could not find cuda file inside /usr/local however nvidia-smi saids CUDA version 11.4

I think I've found the solution, it seems to be working now

Upgrade or uninstall cuda to allow apt-get to work

dpkg -l | grep cuda- | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -n1 sudo dpkg --purge
df -h
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt autoremove

An untested but similar answer that might work better...

sudo apt-get install $(dpkg -l | awk '/cuda-|nvidia-/ {print $2 "-"}' ) cuda

Basically, that allows all cuda and nvidia packages to be removed, and then installs cuda all in one step. This allows apt-get to keep anything that doesn't conflict and remove what does.
