Title: Update Error dpkg was interrupted - Spud9

New to Linux, can anyone point me in right directio to fix this error?

Apologies for starting new thread - there is currently a problem with the forum software which prevents opening threads if there is an apostrophe the subject.

To fix this, following the instructions will usually work, but you need to prefix the command given with 'sudo'.  Open a terminal window by pressing Ctrl Alt T.  Then in that window enter

Code: [Select]

sudo dpkg --configure -a
followed by return.  Enter your password when asked and then run updates again.

Re. Forum Bug and the use of some characters - no fix yet. Workaround to see all posts regardless of formatting - use Tapatalk on your tablet or mobile phone.
