The list is pretty small to be honest and all of it very normal. Also, nearly everything there is an old library and/or kernel. The few packages there that are not libraries or kernels are just apps that were likely replaced by newer ones and/or snaps since you choose to run Ubuntu, where that's now default for some time. Some could be due to conflicts, but none are important nor unable to be re-installed later. In short, everything looks standard and normal here and what you typically see on an upgrade process. If you want to remove snap and stop it from ever being installed again, something like this tutorial here will help: https://www.baeldung.com/linux/snap-remove-disable Also, apt is now integrated with snap on Ubuntu for some packages, so you will need to install those by other means such as but not exclusive to ppas for chromium like this https://askubuntu.com/questions/1204571/how-to-install-chromium-without-snap ... other apps are impacted by the snap integration too; you should do some research. Just because you use "apt" on Ubuntu does not - any longer - mean you are not using snap; they are interwoven now by design and for quite a while now. See https://askubuntu.com/questions/1410688/how-to-prevent-apt-from-automaticall... for more information. Firefox and Chromium, for example, will default to snap when using apt. Good luck dude. Never a better time to switch to Debian. Also, you might run sudo apt dist-upgrade to resolve dependencies next time. Jonathan On 5/27/24 3:29 PM, Brian O'Keefe wrote:
Hello All. This is a long bit of info but I'm hoping someone can advise.
Running Ubuntu 20.04 on ASUS laptop, AMD64. I have done an upgrade, "sudo apt upgrade". To run the upgrade I had to uninstall 13 [Package]* i386 as dependencies were broken. That's all fine now though I may need to reinstall some for functionality. However, the "apt upgrade" offers to auto remove many packages which seem, some, important. I'm very reluctant to remove them. Here they are and if anyone can advise I'd really appreciate it.
