** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: kdelibs
  
  unfortunately i cannot remember the exact software package as i was
  installing several applications simultaneously. all i can remember is
  that it was some sort of accountancy/money management software. i am
  using ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex. i expected the packages to be
  downloaded and installed normally but instead towards the end one
  application failed to install and the system reported a crash report
  instead, the the 'add/remove' window would not close when i
  attemptempted a retry although vlc media player was still working fine,
  so the system did not crash entirely
  
+ upon restarting my system i now cannot use add/remove programs or update
+ manager as they both report the same error since this bug occured; that
+ being
+ 
+ E:dpkg was interrupted, you must run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem
+ E:_cache->open()failed, please report. 
+ 
+ From here i just dont know where to go or what to do! i tried running
+ 'dpkg --configure -a' in terminal and all i get in return is requested
+ operation requires supervisor privilege.
