trying to (re-)install ffmpeg, but unmet dependencies

I previously tried to follow https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2022/02/install-ffmpeg-5-0-ubuntu/ in installing ffmpeg 5 on ubuntu 20.04 LTS, that did not work. Now I have upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (which came with its own problems). and I still can not correctly install ffmpeg;

sudo apt install ffmpeg

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 ffmpeg : Depends: libavcodec58 (= 7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1)

What is happening that apt is trying to install dependencies for version 20 when I now have version 22?

The Savoury FFmpeg5 PPA now says I quote :

*** Install ***

FFmpeg builds here depend on the public FFmpeg PPA (ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg4), and the new private FFmpeg PPA (ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg) for installation. Any who have donated can contact me requesting access to the private PPA. Once you have been granted private PPA access do these steps for installation:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg4
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg5
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

Therefore one needs to donate to the author and then contact him (Rob Savoury) to be given the access to his ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg private PPA into your launchpad subscriptions. This private PPA is needed to install ffmpeg and its dependencies :

I used a combination of this thread and some help from ChatGPT-4, and got it fixed using these commands:

# remove the savory1 PPA:
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/savoury1-ubuntu-ffmpeg*

# not sure if these were necessary, but can't hurt
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

# manually install the packages over the existing savory1 ones:
sudo apt-get install libavcodec58=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
sudo apt-get install libavdevice58=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
sudo apt-get install libavfilter7=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
sudo apt-get install libavformat58=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
sudo apt-get install libavutil56=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
sudo apt-get install libpostproc55=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
sudo apt-get install libswresample3=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
sudo apt-get install libswscale5=7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

# install ffmpeg
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

It's apparently because the savory1 guy decided to start charging people for his PPA, but I really have no idea.

UPDATE (24 Mar 2023): The PPAs at this Launchpad site are now moving to a subscriber only (those who have donated) system. Given how many people and businesses are using these PPAs that I've put thousands of hours of energy into creating, and given the tiny amount of donations from all those many people and businesses, it is now necessary for the sake of my survival to restrict access to the most popular software at these PPAs to supporters.
