Error when updating

[Michael Maurice]

I'm trying to install the recommended updates but get the following message when attempting to do so:

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure a' to correct the problem

E: _cache->open()failed, please report.

What does this mean and how do I correct it?

Open a Terminal (Applications>Accessoires>Terminal) and do as it suggests

sudo dpkg --configure -a

It means that the package manger was interrupted and by manually running dpkg --configure -a you telling it to configure all unpacked packages.

Thanks ever so much, it worked.
