(I am not sure which package creates this indicator; please reassign if it's not software- properties.) This indicator has a menu (screenshot attached) with text reading: An error occurred, please run Package Manager from the right-click menu or apt-get in a terminal to see what is wrong. The error message was: ' Error: BrokenCount > 0' This usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies This message has numerous problems. 1. There is no "right-click menu"; a left-click or a right-click on this icon both show the same thing 2. There is no "Package Manager" entry in the shown menu (there is the error message above, a separator, "Show updates", a separator, "Show notifications", and "Preferences") 3. It recommends running "apt-get" which should be "apt" 4. The error message has a space at the start of it 5. The error message uses straight quotes rather than typographic quotes 6. It does not end with a full stop despite being written as prose ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: software-properties-gtk 0.98.9.5 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.11.0-27.29~20.04.1-generic 5.11.22 Uname: Linux 5.11.0-27-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs zunicode zavl icp zcommon znvpair ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.20 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Sun Sep 19 17:07:00 2021 InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-06-20 (456 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200423) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: software-properties UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/1944081/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
