Yesterday I tried to install an app but for some reason it got interrupted. Today I tried to install another app but I got an error:

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

after that when I type sudo dpkg --configure -a I get this:

Setting up mime-support (3.59ubuntu1)...

but suddenly my system freezes and my ram usage goes to 95%.

For solution I tried:

sudo apt-get install -f

sudo dpkg --configure -a or sudo apt-get remove mime-support

But nothing happens or it get stock.

I'm using Xubuntu 16.04

Thank you in advance.

What app were you trying to install? Check if it managed to install it because it sounds like it worked. – Jul 12 '16 at 19:43
Could you please post text files and program output listings as text, not as images (see How do I save terminal output to a file?)? Thanks. – David Foerster Jul 13 '16 at 13:25
I think I was uninstalling Cario-dock... It's not in the menu anymore but I have it in the list of installed packages – Ashkan Lotfipoor Jul 14 '16 at 08:44
