Question #77010 on Ubuntu changed:

Tom proposed the following answer:
Hi :)

There are many ways to get to a command-line to type this in.  Alt F2 is
a good one but my favourite is to go up to the top taskbar and click on

Applications - Accessories - Terminal

and then into the terminal/command window/console type in (or copy&paste
with the mouse (^v doesn't work))

sudo dpkg --configure -a

it asks for your normal user password, not your SuperUser/Root one.
Note there is a space after "sudo", another space after "dpkg" and
another after "configure".  Hopefully the way i have spaced out this
answer makes it clearer but really i'm just repeating what everyone else
is saying.

I hope this helps!
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
