However, I get a bunch of selinux context stuff (in a line), at the end of which it says "res=failed".  This laptop is one of those 4K resolution ones and so has very small print on the console and so I could not take a picture that is clear enough.

Is it possible that I may have accidentally deleted a package which  has this?
