E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

I try it and...

sudo dpkg --configure -a 
Setting up linux-headers-4.8.0-34-generic (4.8.0-34.36) ... 
Examining /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d. 
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d/dkms 4.8.0-34-generic /boot/vmlinuz-4.8.0-34-generic

when I do it this happen, and stay there forever, i try to close it and run another command and wont let me try another command, i have to restart the computer, also if i try to do it in a more grafic way like...:

software-properties-gtk

Opens the "software & updates" preferences and when you configure it and close it, it self update and shows a window:

The information about available software is out-of-date

To install software and updates from newly added or changed sources, you have to reload the information about available software.

You need a working internet connection to continue.

I click reload and shows:

and again.. stay there forever with out doing nothing

  • When you run `dpkg --configure -a` how long is "forever"? It can easily take 5–15 minutes to build *each* kernel module known to your DKMS setup. Could you please include the output of `ps axjf` so we can get a better idea what's going on? – David Foerster Jan 29 '17 at 11:32
  • i leaved it the whole night running and no answer – Xoktz Feb 01 '17 at 17:09
  • Done like you did, with systax bash. https://paste.ubuntu.com/23911421/ sorry I respond later, iI can only do it at home and I'm going trough mobil wifi. – Xoktz Feb 02 '17 at 15:23
  • Thanks. That worked. You can delete the comments with the incomplete pasties now. DPKG is clearly stuck during the build process of the Nvidia kernel module via DKMS. There should be a build log somewhere in `/var/lib/dkms/nvidia-367/367.57/build/`. Could you please put a copy of that into your question (either in-line or through a pastie link)? – David Foerster Feb 02 '17 at 15:49
  • sorry againg, im very new with this. I found a file name Kbuild: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23911754/ And the only .log file is this: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23911773/ – Xoktz Feb 02 '17 at 16:10
  • Nothing noteworthy there except that the log file doesn't contain much at all. The `KBuild` file is actually a file with build instructions not a log file. The only idea I have right now is to remove the Nvidia driver package with `dpkg -r nvidia-367`, configure pending packages with `dpkg --configure -a` and reinstall the Nvidia drivers. – David Foerster Feb 02 '17 at 18:07
  • I unistalles successfully the driver, purged packages, aplly sudo apt auto remove, reload the system, update and upgrade and all works fine. when i reinstal the nvidia drivers and find the same error will report it here. thanks a lot for your help and your time (y) – Xoktz Feb 02 '17 at 18:52

  1. remove the Nvidia driver package with dpkg -r nvidia-367 (you must select other driver in order to uninstall)

  2. configure pending packages with dpkg --configure -a

  3. purged packages: How can you completely remove a package?

  4. update and upgrade: sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade
