Re: problem upgrading packages
I've seen that before -- I've had /etc/fstab complain about it.
These files expect the last character to be a carriage return -- the "final newline."
If you can edit the offending file, then simply opening it up, paging to the end, hitting enter once and then saving, should do the trick.
(Yay, a question I have a clue about! :) )
