dpkg segmentation fault
Howdy to all Debian Guru,
I got a bit of a situation here that I'm stumped. I was trying to run
dselect to update any security issues but came across some segmentation
fault. Here the output of the message when I tried "apt-get update"
winnipeg:~# apt-get update

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to
correct the problem.
Then I tried to run "dpkg --configure -a" and it gave me this
winnipeg:~# dpkg --configure -a
Segmentation fault
I first thought it might be a disk space issue so I ran df and found there's
plenty of space and I can't think of anything else that went wrong.
Any help appreciated!
