I have been using Parrot sec os for some days without any issues.
But for 4 days I am facing a problem that I cannot install any software on my PC…
The screenshots of the pop-up showing the description…
I was trying to install My-SQL and it was not done after that I am unable to install any other software.

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mysql-cluster-community-client : Depends: mysql-cluster-community-client-core (= 8.0.33-1debian10) but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
Debian distros (at least rolling) appear not to support MySQL anymore. Hope someone can correct me on that. Else you will need to purge the MySQL packages, probably along the lines of
I understood it but I am unable to install any other software.
I tried much more software all are showing the same error…
I tried
sudo apt purge mysql*
But still, the issue is not solved…

My software is located in Desktop folder & its name is MySQL (I have renamed it.)
(Keep in mind that MySQL apparently won’t work on Parrot, so you may want to think of using a distro that supports MySQL out of the box if needed for study/work/hobby.)
I understand that I can’t run MySQL on Parrot os Thanks for this information…
Sir your provided command did something but my issue is not solved…
