The following packages have unmet dependencies: libparted-fs-resize0 : Depends: libparted2(=3.4-2build1) but 3.5-3 is installed

sv flag

I was upgrading my Ubuntu 22.04 to 23.04 bcz it very glithy and used to freeze very frequently. During the upgrading process some errors occurred and I was left with white screen with "Oh! no something went wrong" message in the middle of the screen . After going to the tty console and trying to do the process again I am facing the following problem :

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.

The following packages have unmet dependencies: libparted-fs-resize0 : Depends: libparted2(=3.4-2build1) but 3.5-3 is installed

parted : Depends: libparted2(=3.4-2build1) but 3.5-3 is installed

I am trying the apt --fix-broken install command but their is of no help.

With 2 days of continuous trying ,miraculously the upgrade resumed and my OS upgraded to 23.04.

But the problems remains the same.

Trying the "sudo apt-get upgrade" command ,it shows:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 parted : Depends: libparted2 (= 3.4-2build1) but 3.5-3 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Now when I try "sudo apt --fix-broken install" or "sudo apt install -f" , I get :

If you are using Ubuntu 23.04, you should only have software sources for 23.04, otherwise if you mix software sources of different Ubuntu versions you will create a Franken-Debian OS that is hard to manage its packages properly.

libparted-fs-resize0 : Depends: libparted2 (= 3.4-2build1) (from Ubuntu 22.04) but 3.5-3 (from Ubuntu 23.04) is installed. You are running Ubuntu 23.04, so everything should match to 23.04 including your software sources. That's what you should fix first.

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.
