E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to
correct the problem.
update available list script returned error exit status 1.
Press <enter> to continue.
Then I ran;
# dpkg --configure -a
Setting up foomatic-filters (3.0.0-20031207-1) ...
Configuration file `/etc/foomatic/filter.conf'
==> File on system created by you or by a script.
==> File also in package provided by package maintainer.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a new shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** filter.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? D/Y/N and <Enter> (I tried all
of them).
It hanged here and I could not proceed further
Kindly advise how to fix the problem
