I am following one of the easylinuxtips suggestions, in particular from an article called "Libre Office: Configure it right" specifically:
6. Install some useful fonts, in order to improve the compatibility with documents from Microsoft Office:
Launch a terminal window (this is how to launch a terminal window).
Use copy/paste to transfer this line into the terminal (it's one line!):
sudo apt-get install fonts-crosextra-carlito fonts-crosextra-caladea
Press Enter. Type your password when prompted; this will remain entirely invisible, not even asterisks will show, which is normal.
___________
I have done this successfully before with other computers, but after I type my password with this particular computer I get the following:
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
I'm unsure what exactly I am suppose to do (type the above in..?). I wanted to get some clarification before I perhaps screwed something up.
Any suggestions?
