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The information about available software is out-of-date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

build log in: /var/lib/dkms/nvidia-367/367.57/build/ :

Kbuild file: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23911754/

.log file: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23911773/

  • 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.

    sorry I respond later, iI can only do it at home and I'm going trough mobil wifi.

  • 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)

  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
