When trying to update my Linux Lite I get this message: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

Anyone knows how to geta round it so that I may get the newest updates?

Open a terminal by pressing 'Ctrl' 'Alt' and 'T' together
In the terminal window type or paste in this command

Code:
sudo dpkg --configure -a

followed by return/enter
When asked for your password, type it in followed by return/enter.
Updates should then work normally.
