Honestly, I cannot blame him for that. This requires deep knowledge of the subject and the fix is not easy to spot.

I have been using Linux for a decade now on desktop and server systems and he'll, even I would probably have told the package manager to go do it's shit and borked my system. Because getting weird errors, warnings and conflicts is just "the Linux experience" (TM)

I hope more flatpack based distris come up or stuff like nix gains some following. This would make it a lot easier for people with less knowledge to get into the Linux space without much technical knowledge or the possibility to Bork the system (to a degree). Meanwhile classic distros can serve the more technically inclined audience.
