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

dpkg --configure -a

Post back any error or success.

In terminal,


sudo apt-get update
sudp apt-get upgrade

close terminal and open synaptic (system > admin > synaptic > type your password). Search for (it's there, just checked) simple-ccsm and install thru synaptic.

Open up Software Sources (System>Admin>Software Sources) and check that you have the 'Uninverse' repository enabled under the first tab.
