Can't do "apt-get upgrade" even after "apt --fix-broken install"

Hi,

I was trying to install labelImg and stuck at wheel, and then errors starts to happen. (I guess)
I did try to clear the cache and stuff.
And here is the PATH

nvidia@ubuntu:~$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/cuda-11.4/bin:/home/nvidia/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin
nvidia@ubuntu:~$

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 cuda-libraries-dev-11-4 : Depends: cuda-profiler-api-11-4 (>= 11.4.239) but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Ok, I found the solution from here :>

sudo apt --fix-broken install -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite"

Glad to know issue fixed.
