So I installed VirtualBox 6.0 from the deb file before learning that actually, I wanted version 5.2 (I have my reasons). Anyway, I attempted to remove virtualbox-6.0 using apt remove --purge and it failed with the following error:

dpkg: error processing package virtualbox-6.0 (--remove):
 installed virtualbox-6.0 package pre-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1

dpkg --remove --force-all virtualbox-6.0 did no different. In my infinite wisdom, I decided to delete every trace of virtualbox I could find on my system, did so, and now virtualbox is gone from everything it had under /usr. Then I tried removing it, which still returned the same error. I was unable to install version 5.2 because it complained that another installation was still there. There is no trace of any processes running or files on my drive, yet this annoyingly persistent vbox is still in the way. How do I get it to go away?

I'm running 18.04 and need to connect my laptop to a WPA2 Enterprise network at my school that I'm fairly sure uses MSCHAPV2 with PEAP and no CA certificate. When I connect with the credentials that work fine with Windows and on my iPhone, it fails to authenticate as if my password is wrong. I've tried adding my ID to anonymous ID, which failed. I've tried no PEAP as well as a couple other security types, no dice. I've seen some old solutions but they seem to break compatibility with regular wpa2 networks, which is a deal breaker for me as I need seamless switching to my home network. Compounding my issues, I don't have access to gnome settings as I run the deepin desktop. lshw shows my wireless card as being an Intel Dual-Band Wireless AC 3168NGW [Stone Peak], whatever that means. Any help is welcome!
