Manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem

After the second command you wll get an error saying run 'dpkg --configure -a'. so then I tried to re-jailbreak my atv2 5.0.2 and it did not work, then I googled and found I could retrieve xbmc in nito but i get the "manually run dpkg-configure'' to correct problem". IF some packages were Broken you might face this Problem so in order to Fix you have to configure the dpkg using the following command #dpkg --configure -a Now the FFmpeg installation should work I am trying to install ffmpeg package on linuxmint , during which i am facing the following Problem #a. dpkg was interruped , you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a ' to correct the peoblem. This error occurs when I install VirtualBox in Ubuntu20.04 Solution System upgrades and appears when you start Synaptic problems, but also can not install software E: dpkg operation is interrupted, you E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. This error is actually telling you exactly what is If it doesn't try running sudo apt-get install -f (to fix broken packages) and then try running sudo dpkg --configure -a again. Just make sure you have E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg -configure -a' to correct the problem. Unfortunately I cannot run dpkg as it says it isn't installed. I can't install it do the problem.
