I know this sounds weird, but somehow alsa-utils breaks every action I try to do
with APT. For example simply trying to install gedit:
> Selecting previously deselected package gedit-common.
> (Reading database ... dpkg: error processing
> /var/cache/apt/archives/gedit-common_2.18.2-1_all.deb (--unpack):
> unable to open files list file for package `alsa-utils': No such device or
> address
> Errors were encountered while processing:
> /var/cache/apt/archives/gedit-common_2.18.2-1_all.deb
> Processing was halted because there were too many errors.
> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
This error appears with every action, be it install, remove or anything else.
Any help is highly appreciated since I cannot do anything ATM.

Hi again.
Damnit, I really got to learn to try more things myself first. The
/var/lib/dpkg/info/alsa-utils.list file was corrupted since I’ve had a lot of
hard shutdowns today. Replacing it with one from a backup fixed everything
again. Sorry for the noise.
Regards, Mathias
