On Ubuntu 18.04, I recently installed Pantheon but then removed it and the PPAs using the appropriate method. However it now seems that the settings menu won't open, either from GUI or terminal. When I run gnome-control-center I get "Command not found but can be installed with..." and when I try to install it, I get "gnome-control-center is already the newest version". What's going on here? I already tried re-installing the ubuntu-desktop and apt dist-upgrade, apt autoremove and apt clean and still not luck.

          It turns out that doing apt remove gnome-control-center and apt install gnome-control-center fixes this.



          However when launching from terminal a Gtk message "Failed to load module 'pantheon-filename-module'" appears, so perhaps indicating an incomplete or incorrect clean-up.

I do not come from a particularly wealthy family, (very low middle class), and was only able to afford my education via school loans/scholarships and working low-wage jobs, with no support from my family or anyone else. I realize some scholarship/loan programs extend into grad school. But I don't think those cover all costs. Now I'm lucky enough to have a decent-paying salary in industry, along with benefits and living on my own, and I'm thinking one day (sooner rather than later) I'd like to try my hand at research or continue my degree, but these things cost money, in addition to my regular living expenses. I read posts here often about academic people being in positions of choosing between these crazy research grad programs, some in Japan, or Ireland (while they currently live in the U.S./U.K.) then moving around between countries/universit...
