broken upgrade to xubuntu 24.04 from xubuntu 23.10, can access initramfs as root in recovery mode:
there is a broken package I believe is the root of this whole issue: libfreerdp2-2
if I execute
sudo apt install libfreerdp2-2
I get:
you might want to run apt --fix broken install to correct these, libfreerdp2-2 has unmet dependencies, try apt --fix broken install with no packages or suggest a solution.
After trying apt --fix broken install I get error processing package install-info (–configure), installed install-info package post installation script
Does this happen because the system is only readable?
I also executed
mount -o remount,rw /
mount --all
what do I need to do to check if these commands have worked?
No. Likely just a broken package.
I highly recommend doing a system snapshot before an upgrade to prevent stuff like that.
Because of that I highly recommend atomic Fedora where this is fully automated. Or at least OpenSUSE tumbleweed. Also Ubuntu will be able to do this.
