I'm guessing that if you set up your VM with same programs you added to the installed one, you'll end up with the correct "File" file that you need. So once VM all set just copy off to a USB the VM's /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File. Then just put it on your installed system.
If system still won't work right, then maybe there's more wrong with it than we thought. Probably easiest at that point to just re-install. Make backups of any config files you don't want to have to re-create and your data files, then just restore them into the new install.
Good luck. Let us know how it goes.
