(Solved) Apt seems to have gotten jammed somehow

What must I do to unjam things?

I have tried many suggestions from various websites but they don’t work because it looks like there is some sort of circular dependency going on here.

    Thanks for all your suggestions! I uninstalled ca-certificates-java and minecraft-launcher , and when I did that the others were removed also. then I re-installed the Minecraft.deb that I had downloaded from Mojang’s site and now Minecraft is working. Next, I will investigate Geogebra.
