What exactly does the terminal report when you run the command? Did you use sudo with the command?
Another command to use , before running the dpkg command again, is:
Code: Select all
sudo apt -f install

which will try to install missing things, such as those that did not get installed before, and are causing the error.
It will also probably give more messages that may be useful to pinpoint what is going on
