    Hi and welcome to Ask Ubuntu. A question needs a lot more then just a series of errors. A clear question not just in the title and DETAILS lots of details. Please use the edit function and add them. – David Feb 16 '23 at 06:42
  • I looked up a package (`libqt5core5a | 5.9.5+dfsg-0ubuntu2.6 | bionic-updates | amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, s390x`) chosen at random from your paste, and what it shows is you're still using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS due to *xenial* packages matching what you have installed? Your description (*largely title*) doesn't match what I found. – guiverc Feb 16 '23 at 06:57

    Since you're upgrading from a very old system that's EOL (Ubuntu 16.04), perhaps the best option would be to reinstall a fresh Ubuntu 22.04 system, and restore your important data. – Artur Meinild Feb 16 '23 at 09:14
