[Bug 2044145] Re: upgrade from 23.04 to 23.10 failed in both GUI and CLI

Tue Nov 21 20:31:22 UTC 2023

As far as I can tell, the root cause of the issue here is that libmutter-12-0 depends on "mutter-common-bin (=44.3-0ubuntu1.1)".
Note the = rather than >=.

Pure speculation on my part.

The dependency is actually pretty bizarre. Why does libmutter depend on
mutter-common-bin anyway? These are just some helper tools. I could see
the mutter window manager depending on them, but not so much libmutter.
