eu flag
dpkg: error processing package libfwupdplugin5:amd64 (--configure):
 package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should
 reinstall it before attempting configuration
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of fwupd:
 fwupd depends on libfwupdplugin5 (= 1.7.9-1~22.04.1); however:
  Package libfwupdplugin5:amd64 is not configured yet.

dpkg: error processing package fwupd (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup erro
r from a previous failure.

The fix is exactly what it suggests: Reinstall the package which is "in a very bad inconsistent state".

As the error message suggests:

dpkg: error processing package libfwupdplugin5:amd64 (--configure):
  package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should
  reinstall it before attempting configuration

You should reinstall the package in very bad inconsistent state:

sudo apt install --reinstall libfwupdplugin5

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking.
