Why do we even tell the user "you must run <this command>"? Why not just offer to run it for them, possibly after prompting: "dpkg was interrupted; run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem? [Y/n]" or some such. The same could be done for the "autoremove". Rather that telling the use what command to run, we could offer to run it for them. -- apt-get tells me to run "dpkg", but the correct command is "sudo dpkg" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/52697 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
