Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 corectrl : Depends: libbotan-2-19 (>= 2.19.3+dfsg) but it is not installable
            Depends: libc6 (>= 2.38) but 2.31-13+deb11u7 is to be installed
            Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 13.1) but 10.2.1-6 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

. Please help, thank you. If you need more info to help I can give more.

I tried using these, https://gitlab.com/corectrl/corectrl https://launchpad.net/~ernstp/+archive/ubuntu/mesarc and also these lines of code sudo apt-get -f install sudo apt install aptitude sudo aptitude install corectrl I have no idea why aptitude didnt work, maybe because i have a uninstallable dependancy sudo apt-get update This is everything I tried without the extras that are not relevant or now nonrelevant. (because I found out how to solve it using those lines of code).

Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

if your package get broken you may try this command.

apt --fix-broken install

and I see libbotan-2-19, libc6, libstdc++6

those files come with system if you did delete these files or it's getting older you may update your linux distribution with basic command

sudo apt-get update

if you need to check upgradable list in your distribution. use this command

apt list —upgradable

isn't work try recovery mode to recover your packages
