This happens when trying to update things in apt in PopOS. Tell me if more info is needed. I hope I posted to the right community.>>>

Tried that already. The installation tries to run but the problem blocks it from running.
Try downloading the deb and installing it manually using
dpkg -i
. Maybe that will allow it to skip this dependency.Thanks! That worked.
So glad to hear! This is probably my first ever attempt at helping a fellow stranger and actually getting to the solution!
