Public bug reported: I had the kubuntu-backports PPA enabled and when I did do-release- upgrade -d from 21.10 to 22.04 the system crashed partway through the process. After rebooting, X would not start (white screen with a frowning computer telling me the system had a problem and I should contact my administrator)
after logging in from the command line and fixing broken/pending packages via apt, the system would boot, but only to the command line and startx would trigger the white error again. when I attempted to do apt install kubuntu-desktop to try and fix things, I got the following error Building dependency tree... Reading state information... Some packages could not be installed.
