[Ryedale] Probllem with Synaptic

[ALEX ARMANI]

Problem with Synaptic Gives the error message; E: dpkg was interupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. E: _cache->open()failed, please report. So I close Synaptic, open up an Xfce Terminal, alex at armani:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a [sudo] password for alex: Setting up linux-image-3.13.0-33-lowlatency (3.13.0-33.5 ...
