Installation problem in Ubuntu 20.04 (gnome, amdgpu - unistallation impossible)

md flag

I have the exact problem as: Installation problem in Ubuntu 20.04 But nothing helps. For example, when typing:

sudo dpkg --configure -a

Ir replies:

Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution :
 amdgpu-dkms
 amdgpu

It means: Errors are present during execution connected with: amdgpu.... It should be gnome that does it, but it goes with the original Ubuntu, so I did not chose this package.

Useless methods:

sudo dpkg -P amdgpu && sudo dpkg -P amdgpu-dkms 

Output:

Done

But when repeating the above command same error is there.

sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/amdgpu* /tmp

Output: E: Le dépôt http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnome3-team/gnome3-staging/ubuntu focal Release n'a pas de fichier Release. [Translation: deposit http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnome3-team/gnome3-staging/ubuntu focal Release contains no release] N: Les mises à jour depuis un tel dépôt ne peuvent s'effectuer de manière sécurisée, et sont donc désactivées par défaut. N: Voir les pages de manuel d'apt-secure(8) pour la création des dépôts et les détails de configuration d'un utilisateur.

Further:

sudo apt update 

Contains the same error (whish is above, in the question). So, it seems Ubuntu is counter-intuitive on dealing with normal for OS problems. Any tiny issue makes Ubuntu useless in installing new software, which is sad. Can you, please, help with solving this problem?

PS:

sudo apt upgrade -y

Result: OK Then, say:

sudo apt update

The same error.

Uninstalling these AMD GPU drivers leads to Ubuntu system crash (system stops loading), so I can advise other users not to do so - Ubuntu has no core AMD GPU drivers that can replace what you have in your system :(

AMD GPU driver removal leads to system crash.

There is only one way I have found to solve this problem.

I upgraded Ubuntu to 22.04 [in my case: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS; JAMMY].

Ubuntu 20 appears to be buggy with relation to the AMD GPU in GNOME. I recommend not using this combination.

Upgrading to 22.04 resolved all my problems. And installation of the software was very simple (Ubuntu 20, not so much).

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. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
