I was able to fix this, or at least I think I fixed it.

when installing sudo apt install gamemode steam

got hit with

dpkg error processing archive 
/var/cache/apt/archives/libtheoraenc1_1.2.0~aplha1+dfsg-5_i386.deb (unpack): 
trying to overwrite shared ‘/usr/share/doc/libtheoranenc1/changelog.Debian.gz’, 
which is different from other instances of package libtheoraenc1:i386
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/libtheoraenc1_1.2.0~alpha1+d-5_i386.deb

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo rm /usr/share/doc/libtheoraenc1/changelog.Debian.gz
sudo apt --fix-broken install
sudo apt install -f
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

and that’s how I fixed broken packages on plucky with libtheoraenc1:i386
error messages, anyway it seems fix now, to install and fix that
changelog.debian.gz file needs to be deleted.

that's how I had to fix it, now it seems apt and apt-get work correctly
again, is this the right way to fix this type of error under ubuntu? I
mean pucky kubuntu 25.04 kde plasma version.
