Just ran into this issue. I have ubuntu running in virtual box. The host OS ran out of memory while Update Manager was running. So, the system froze. Couldn't resume to had to kill the OS and restart.
When I ran update manager again, it presented me with this error. Ideal solution: Update manager runs 'dpkg --configure -a" itself (It has the admin password already). -- Synaptic doesn't recover gracefully from error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/16787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
