You need to continue specifying all of the packages in the same command line, and repeat with new packages as necessary until it tells you an actual reason for the failure instead of just the generic "is not going to be installed". Thanks; following this procedure I was eventually able to get apt into a state where it offered to install all the necessary dependencies for both kodi and gnome-control-center.

No, no output from that command.
Do you have any packages pinned, either manually, or by way of some
automatic action performed by apt-listbugs? I'm not an expert in
pinning, but maybe start with: grep -ri pin /etc/apt
No pins listed by that command, and apt-cache policy also doesn't list
anything under "Pinned packages".
If neither of these is the case, then I'd try:
apt-cache polisy kodi kodi-bin # just to get some information
# apt-cache policy kodi kodi-bin
kodi:
Installed: 2:19.1+dfsg2-2
Candidate: 2:19.1+dfsg2-2
Version table:
*** 2:19.1+dfsg2-2 500
500 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
kodi-bin:
Installed: 2:19.1+dfsg2-2
Candidate: 2:19.1+dfsg2-2
Version table:
*** 2:19.1+dfsg2-2 500
500 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
And if that looks OK, then:
apt install kodi kodi-bin
# apt install kodi kodi-bin
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
kodi is already the newest version (2:19.1+dfsg2-2).
kodi-bin is already the newest version (2:19.1+dfsg2-2).
kodi-bin set to manually installed.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
Or maybe:
apt -f install# with no packages, just to try to fix what's broken
# apt -f install
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
So it looks like none of your commands turned up anything, or any
problems, and yet it's still not possible for me to install
gnome-control-center.

Tristan

kodi and gnome-control-center conflict on bullseye
Dear all, On my bullseye system, it doesn't seem to be possible to install both kodi and gnome-control-center as they conflict with each other.

How do I disable display power management on bullseye?
Dear all, I've got an Intel NUC10i3FNH on which I've done a fresh install of buster and then upgraded to bullseye. After exactly five minutes of inactivity, the display (connected via HDMI) fades to black and then shortly thereafter shuts off completely. How can I inhibit this behaviour? I need the monitor to remain on all the time. Here are some things I've tried so far: 1) Disable idle activation for my user account: $ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver idle-activation-enabled false 2) Disable sleep for my user account: $ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-type 'nothing' $ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-timeout 0 3) Disable sleep for the login manager: # cat << EOF > /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults sleep-inactive-ac-timeout sleep-inactive-ac-type='nothing' EOF 4) Disable sleep for the X server globally: # cat << EOF > /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/xorg.conf.d Section "ServerFlags" Option "BlankTime" "0" Option "StandbyTime" "0" Option "SuspendTime" "0" Option "OffTime" "0" EndSection EOF 5) Disable sleep for the current X session: $ xset s off s noblank s 0 0 s noexpose None of these measures have stopped the screen from blanking and eventually shutting off altogether after five minutes. What else should I be doing? When I run xset q, the relevant output is as follows: Screen Saver: prefer blanking: noallow exposures: yes timeout: 0cycle: 0 DPMS (Energy Star): Server does not have the DPMS Extension Regards, Tristan -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Tristan Miller Free Software developer, ferret herder, logologist https://logological.org/ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
