Hi, my laptop is coming up with the following error message when I try to install updates.
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
can someone please explain in layman's terms what I am supposed to do?
Thanks

Hi, open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and type
sudo dpkg --configure -a
