    Do you know where is it coming from and how to solve it ... I don't like to reinstall my system to fix this problem...

    I googled and tried my solutions but no success...

    any help from your side will be appreciated

    Thanx

    Re: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) while upgrading to 10.10

    First, /usr/bin/dpkg is your package-manager backend. Did you follow these directions precisely? It looks like you have some broken link somewhere.

    From within a terminal does the command
    Code:
    sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
    do anything for you?

    And, has this left you with an entirely unusable system?
