Be sure to also change your e-mail address , use a non existent e-mail. This will effectively de activate your account, and since there is no way to send a re-activation e-mail, your account can not be re-activated. Actually there is no need to change the password, if you just change the e-mail to a...

Why are people still answering this fool.

It's bviously a bot or a really bored troll.

#163 Yes 'apt-policy' gives more info, and generally, E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Indicates something is wrong with the sources.list file. Or some of the packages installed. Usually that error message, also includes one that suggests: # apt update --fix-missing and ...

Qemu is better, Irrelevant. The OP wants to install Virtualbox and already has some Virtualbox VMs. Well it might seem irrelevant , but when someone else told me about Qemu, I also was still using VirtualBox, all my VM's were Virtual Box, and when Debian stopped including it in the repos, I did not...

Where is the "Trash"?

Out back, in the trash can

Qemu is better, and it is in the Debian repositories real simple to install: The package even comes with a manual:
'man qemu'

Your right, and good to see you again, we had not seen you around lately. Really unless they identify their selves as a AI bot, and I think they should, there is nothing wrong with being a bot, but most are programmed to say "No I am not a bot", when asked. Some of the better ones will res...

No, not trolling, but it will keep generating new questions as fast as you can answer them.

As long as members keep feeding the bot, it will keep generating new questions.
I am starting a new topic on this in "off topic",
Just saying. But you all know the expression, "takes one to know one"

Switching to a lighter desktop (or window manager) is a easy and straightforward way to save a huge chunk of system resources but is dependent on a person preferences. Would advise trying any that look interesting to you in live session isos or vm to see if it's something you'd want to do or pursue...

---- snip----but I don't get why? Kind of just my opinion here, but recently I installed Debian 9 to a VM, and yea, noticed a lot of changes, not just the interface names, also, several commands, standard Unix commands, like 'ifconfig', 'netstat', and others, I looked at some documentation, and no ...

No offense, but most of us live in the real world... None taken, but the so called "real world" for you, is not what my real world is,the OP, and all of this is just a fantasy on the computer screen, and has nothing to do with the real world, what ever that is supposed to mean. And who is...

dpkg --audit Just comes up blank, and returns to the prompt. Glad to see you were not annoyed, or angry, because of the time spent. But yes you do get the "Best effort" prize, 2. apt-get remove sl Would not have worked, since the real 'sl' file had been moved to /bin and with the name 'ls'...

Update: Thanks H_O_A_S, hope you don't get mad, at this : Garry and Bryan just got back, and Bryan, confessed , it was him and put things back the way they should be.
