Please do not create multiple threads on the same subject.

It diutes community effort and increases the staff's workload.

Hi

It's looking for a file, cannot find it and failing while trying to purge.

Open a terminal and type


sudo touch /boot/burg/locale

Then try to purge as you did before. Post back if it works.


dpkg: warning: files list file for package 'ubuntu-mono' missing; assuming package has no files currently installed

You also have this warning to address.

Kind regards
