apt - Uninstall OpenShot

Ubuntu says that OpenShot is not installed. It clearly is, as you can see in this screenshot. I've tried a number of variants, including apt remove openshot*, OpenShot, and so on. All the info I can find says this should have worked. I'd like to remove it because it is unstable on my system.


Commands such as sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove openshot return "openshot is not installed" As you can see it is installed and running. enter image description here


[EDIT] Here is the output of apt-cache:


lawrence@DianneFosseyT5500:~$ apt-cache search openshot*

lawrence@DianneFosseyT5500:~$

[Edit] sudo apt list --installed does not produce any output that lists anything like openshot.


Attempting to install openshot again results in this:


The following packages have unmet dependencies:

openshot : Depends: melt but it is not going to be installed
Depends: python-mlt but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
