I'm trying to uninstall and reinstall Firefox in LL 2.8 using Synaptic Package Manager (SPM). I keep getting an error notice when trying to launch the SPM telling me that I need to make a report and run this terminal command.:-
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
When trying to run that, I'm told I need Superuser permission. Help!!
