Ubuntu noble repositories are broken atm. This is related to recent cve
related to the backdoor in xz (liblzma) package. The cve number is
CVE-2024-3094, many packages might be broken as they're being rebuilt
during this time.

Meanwhile you can add an override to apt configuration so all proper
dependency versions would be selected properly as w/o that there might
be some incompatibilities. Add a file to /etc/apt/preferences.d with
contents like below then run 'apt clean' and 'apt update'. The example
below is if you're using only noble and noble-updates archives,
customize it for your needs if any, check your /etc/apt/sources.list for
what archives you have enabled.

Package: *
Pin: release a=noble-updates
Pin-Priority: 1002

Package: *
Pin: release a=noble
Pin-Priority: 1001

Don't forget to add a newline between each override rule group or the
override might not work properly. Also you should add a rule for each
archive and set priority to -1 for noble-proposed archive so packages
from it would be downgraded or uninstalled if you have one.

I also wouldn't recommend running apt dist-upgrade on graphical
interface if the driver is buggy. Run it from text mode instead (e.g.
enter ctrl-alt-f1 and log in). Also post what driver, graphics card and
desktop you have.
