cannot install "conky" due to missing dependencies such as "libgdk-pixbuf" im running the latest version of Ubuntu

Question

I'm trying to do is install conky and following every tutorial I can and can not get anything use full due too having problems downloading or something needing some dependency

I'm stuck and lost and new and really mad at this point due to following every tutorial and getting lost again

When I run sudo apt-get -y install conky-cli it returns

Reading package lists... Done

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 conky-all : Conflicts: conky-cli but 1.12.2-1 is to be installed
 conky-cli : Conflicts: conky-all but 1.12.2-1 is to be installed
 conky-manager : Depends: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: conky but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: p7zip-full but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: imagemagick
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

When I try to install libgdk-pixbuf with:

sudo apt -y install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0

I get:

I'm curious what tutorial you're following that says to install conky-cli. Most of what I'm seeing refers to installation of conky-all. Try entering sudo apt update followed by sudo apt install conky-all to install, as discussed at https://linuxconfig.org/ubuntu-22-04-system-monitoring-with-conky-widgets.
