Subject: [PATCH] Improve RTL-SDR package conflict handling

Fix broken package states by:
- Running apt --fix-broken install before attempting installation
- Removing both librtlsdr2 and rtl-sdr when conflict detected
- Cleaning up with autoremove
- Running dpkg --configure -a to fix partial installations
