I don't know exactly what did happen to parts of my system that broke;
I suspect that it's related to my python upgrade but I'm not sure.
Some parts I have already fixed, but it still not opening the Software & Updates
and Software Updater
when I click on the icons or even when I try to start it from the terminal.
The output of sudo update-alternatives --config python3
is:
There are 3 choices for the alternative python3 (providing /usr/bin/python3).
Selection Path Priority Status
---------------------------------------------
0 /usr/bin/python3.9 2 auto mode
1 /usr/bin/python3.10 1 manual mode
2 /usr/bin/python3.8 2 manual mode
* 3 /usr/bin/python3.9 2 manual mode
Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:
I have monitored sudo journalctl -f
output:
