I have installedvulkan-headerspackage from mentioned PPA on clean cosmic VM, then ranppa-purge. I can't reproduce your problem. To be completely sure please add output ofapt-cache policy ppa-purgeandaptitude search '~O LP-PPA ?installed'to the question.

@N0rbert see updated question

I have had typo with aptitude - correct isaptitude search '~O LP-PPA ?installed'.

For me it seems that you have some corruption of local ppa file-list files - you can check their contents manually (on /var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_graphics-drivers_dev_ubuntu_dists_cosmic_* path) or by greping for install word -grep -w 'install' /var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_graphics-drivers_dev_ubuntu_dists_cosmic_*.

@N0rbert these files do not contain the stringinstall-. I checked them manually and ran the proposedgrepcommand.

Couldn't find any package whose name is "install", but there are 154 packages which contain "install" in their name:

Unable to apply some actions, aborting
Warning: Something went wrong, packages may not have been reverted
I'm looking for a fix so that the automated downgrade routine by ppa-purge completes or a contact to the PPA provider so that I can inform them about the issue.

For me it seems that you have some corruption of local ppa file-list files - you can check their contents manually (on /var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_graphics-drivers_dev_ubuntu_dists_cosmic_* path) or by greping for install word -grep -w 'install' /var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_graphics-drivers_dev_ubuntu_dists_cosmic_*.

@N0rbert these files do not contain the stringinstall-. I checked them manually and ran the proposedgrepcommand.
