I woke up today and tried to change some basic settings in gnome-control-manager on my Ubuntu 22.04It does not open.
To fix it, I try:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-control-center
gnome-control-center display gnome-control-center
None of this seems to work
This is the error that I am facing while trying to gnome-control-center :
gnome-control-center: symbol lookup error: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37: undefined symbol: gbm_bo_create_with_modifiers2
Since error is on libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37, I try to apt list -a libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37and sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37=2.36.0-2ubuntu1 to revert to a previous version, based on the available options.
But this isn't possible as well because:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 : Depends: libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18 (= 2.36.0-2ubuntu1) but 2.44.0-0ubuntu0.22.04.1 is to be installedE: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
And then I try to fix this dependency:sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37=2.36.0-2ubuntu1 libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18=2.36.0-2ubuntu1
But this ultimately crashed my GUI and reverts me to tty1 mode :)
I then perform sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm3
And now I am back to the beginning. Please help ;-;
