Also miss it. I took a couple of years to warm up to it. Then when started to I really really like it, it went downwards.
I‘ve actually stopped using Unity a few month before Canonical abandoned it because with all the Gnome applications moving into a completly different direction it didn‘t feel consistent at all anymore.
You ever heard about the South Bend shovel slayer? That’s him. Back in ‘58 he murdered his whole family and half the people on the block… with a snow shovel. Been hiding out in this neighbourhood ever since! Not enough evidence to convict. They never found the bodies. Now it’ll just be a matter of time before he does it again.
He walks up and down the streets every night, salting the sidewalks. You see that garbage can full of salt? That’s where he keeps his victims. The salt turns to bodies… Into mummies…
Double-check that your APT sources are exactly what you expect them to be.
Clean your APT cache. Then update it.
Try to fix broken packages again with apt install.
If the problem persists, look at every single package mentioned in the error. Go to the Debian packages website and look up what the current version for your release is. If there are any mismatches, try to resolve them by uninstalling these packages until apt install completes without error again. Make sure to reinstall the right version of your packages again.
Given your other comments about manipulating post installation scripts for some time, if the above doesn’t work for you, consider backing up your data and reinstalling a fresh setup.
I have now fixed the apt issue. Biw I’m just stuck with the startx not working. I’ve already completely reinstalled my nvidia drivers but I still get the same errors in the Xorg logs. In case you are wondering, these are the logs

Are you aware of Nvidia recently releasing different versions of their kernel modules? There’s an open-source and a proprietary flavor. Make sure you have the right one selected for your hardware and fallback to nuvoueau if need be.
