For a while now, I have been unable to successfully run sudo apt update on my install of ubuntu 20.04.
For example, the output is like this

and, using the GUI app "Software & Updates", I get a huge error message like this
when I try to close the app and save my settings, no matter what repositories or server I select.
I have tried changing my /etc/apt/sources.list to the default one
as well as running standard commands suggested such as
sudo apt update && sudo apt autoremove && sudo apt --fix-broken install && sudo apt upgrade
The problem seems to be something deeper...
Has anyone got any ideas?
Thanks.
