No need for a fresh install this problem is VERY EASY to solve.

1. Check if /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:gambas:master.list exists (Mint 22 doesn't use sources.list but this one instead)
Content for Mint 22 should be:
deb http://downloadcontent.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/gambas:/master/xUbuntu_24.10/ /

=> to change content in terminal do:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:gambas:master.list exists

2. Check content of /etc.apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list

=> to check content in terminal do:
sudo nano /etc.apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list

replace all occurrences of jammy to noble and save and exit (I posted a screenshot in one of my previous post with the exact content is should have so you can compare)

3. Next step:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

==> this should fixed it, if not:

sudo apt-get purge gambas3
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get install gambas3

That's all.
