• I searched for similar bug reports in https://github.com/Botspot/pi-apps/issues and found none were relevant.
• I tried updating Pi-Apps and the issue is still not fixed. How to update Pi-Apps?

What happened?

Many apps, with few exceptions, refused to install.

Description

After seeing that the majority of apps wouldn't install, I eventually decided to read what was shown in the Terminal after a dozen or so failures. I noticed that one of the repositories that I'd added earlier had been mentioned each time. The repository was unrelated to both the pi-apps app or any of the apps that I'd unsuccessfully tried to install via pi-apps.
I noticed that I'd made a typo in the repository, so corrected it in sources.list using nano.
This correction in unrelated app's repo fixed in-app installation issues: all previously uninstallable apps via pi-apps could now easily install.

Thought I'd post this as it might help others who might be having difficulties.

Although the repo in question might not be necessary to mention, as it is both unrelated to pi-apps, or any of the apps that previously failed to install using pi-apps, I mention it here to fully paint the picture.

The unrelated item in sources.list that I changed was protonvpn.list
I changed the typo from https://repo.protonvpn.com/debian NSTABLE main
to https://repo.protonvpn.com/debian STABLE main
(the words, in upper case, are shown just to highlight the correction here, they both were lower case in the file).
