Other then reinstalling, the easiest way to fix a broken system like that requires access to a similarly configured system that isn't broken. Find one of those, and start copying binaries from the working system to the broken system. At some point, the broken system should start to work well enough that you can re-install the packages you broke by removing files behind the back of the package manager. Whether that's going to be faster/easier than backing up your configuration and data files and reinstalling Debian is another question. My guess is that reinstalling would probably be faster. FWIW, this is indeed off-topic for this group. It isn't a really Python question, it's a Debian question. -- Grant -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
