To resolve the remaining slowness please open a Terminal window and run:
sudo rm /var/crash/*
and then reboot.
Separately, to try and resolve your broken package problem try:
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
Reboot.
If you still can't solve it after that then I suggest
OK . . . I deleted "immediately" the three or four crash logs that
weren't locked, and on reboot it went faster and login window was in
proper place . . . . But an "error" sound sounded when the log in
window opened on the screen . . . and the "broken packages" symbol is

I'll have
On reboot again it took a looo time to get to the tiny log in

sudo dpkg -i libc6_2.31-0ubuntu11_amd64.deb
and then reboot.
Separately, I think the slowness might be caused by bugs in the
automatic crash reporter.
@Daniel:
Well, I couldn't exactly reproduce the extremely slow boot to a
distorted GUI log in window . . . it wasn't exactly "zippy" but maybe it
took two minutes to get from restart to log in window, which was in the
proper position.
I ran the "journalctl" command and then the plan was to
@Daniel:
Thanks for the reply . . . it'll be a few hours before I can get back to
U-MATE to test out your requests . . . .
But, after I filed this bug I posted the issue on the U-MATE
developmental sub-forum and I got one reply with a link to a recent post

I can't find a simple answer for the slowness or any evidence of it in
the log. However I can see this unsupported package installed, which
will affect practically everything:
libc6 2.31-2ubuntu1 [origin: unknown]
Please revert that package to a supported version:
