Is there any solution for this "Error: E:The package linux-headers-5.4.0-56-generic needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it." I can't do anything...just whatever I do or any updating show me this message. This is my third post regarding this.

The simplest method is to remove the problematic package by

sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-5.4.0-56-generic

or in low-level

sudo dpkg -P --force-all linux-headers-5.4.0-56-generic

Then install normal latest kernel and its headers using:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic
sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-headers-$(uname -r)
sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-$(uname -r)
