Tom proposed the following answer:
Hi :)

I think it also say "Please run "dpkg --configure -a""?  On the top
taskbar click on

Applications - Accessories - Terminal

and into the terminal/command window/console type

sudo dpkg --configure -a

it will ask for your normal user password, not your SuperUser/Root one.
After that see if you can look at

System - Administration - Software Sources

Please let us know how this goes!
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
