Tony,

 

Thank you for that.

 

I ran "sudo dpkg --configure -a" it asked for my password

 

Whatever it did the error has now gone away.

 

Thank you again

 

 

Regards

 

Brian

Have you run dpkg --configure -a ?
Apparently the machine believes that will solve the problem. 
(open a terminal and type

dpkg --configure -a

/tony


Make that sudo dpkg --configure -a
