Bug Description

Hi,
I'm new to the Linux ecosystem. When I updated to Ubuntu 20.04 version from 18.04 my terminal crashed and I was not able to access terminal. I had to go to the tty cli and get dpkg configured. Now when I'm back on GUI, I'm getting these error popups and terminal is crashing. I'm not sure what to do.
