i fixed it removing apt-listchanges
but now i install mosquitto and doesnt start

Run it with

sudo mosquitto -c /etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf
and it should spew out a bunch of error messages.

If it doesn't tell you what's wrong you can add

Code: Select all

log_type all

to get it making more noise.

i had a wrong repo of debian
and i installed a wrong version of Mosquitto

so had to reinstall it again.

now my problem is:
i deleted apt-listchanges

cause it was bad configured
shall i reinstall it again?

Given that you have messed up your system by using an incorrect repo I think it would be quicker and easier to simply download a fresh Raspbian image and reflash your SD card. Start again from scratch, a known good system.
