The following is the error I get when downloading updates;

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

I then opened terminal and ran sudo dpkg --configure -a to repair

This is the result;


user@user-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
dpkg: failed to open package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' for reading: No such file or directory

Any suggestions pleaseÉ
