LL software install - Crazy Larry - 09-27-2016
Every time I run Install/Remove Software I keep getting a failed notice and to manually run 'dpkg-configure-a'
I guess this means typing it into the terminal......but when I do it says no known command. And the Lite Software doesn't work.....It says it can't find the package list. Do I need to reinstall my 3.0?

Run 'dpkg-configure-a' with a sudo prefix in the terminal.

I've done that and I wind up with > on the screen and nothing after that. What's supposed to happen? Because when I go back and click Install/Remove Software I still get the same error telling me to manually run 'dpkg-configure-a'

If you still have terminal open and still have ">" showing, hit CTRL+C to get back to normal prompt.
Proper format of the command you need to run is:
Code:
sudo dpkg --configure -aRe: LL software install - Crazy Larry - 09-27-2016
Thanks for the code....I did a new install from my disk and everything seems to be working now!
