E: The package linux-modules-5.5.13-050513-generic needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.

Do you have dkms modules installed? Maybe one of them errors out?

If you pass --download-only the script will only download all files and you could try to install by yourself to see whats happening?

Please also provide the log of the installation.
