Circular package reference in MonoDevelop #128

Hello:

I have been trying to install MonoDevelop on Kali (AKA Debian Buster) Linux. It appears to have broken the Synaptic Package Manager. No matter what I do, I can't seem to resolve the follow error:

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libmono-corlib4.5-cil_6.12.0.122-0xamarin1+debian10b1_all.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/mono/4.5/mscorlib.dll', which is also in package libmono-corlib4.5-dll 6.8.0.105+dfsg-3.2

If someone could send me a workaround or a way to fix this I would appreciate it as I can't install any other software as long as these broken packages remain. As I am a relative newbie to Linux, a list of the explicit CLI commands would be helpful.

Thanks!
