    HI and Welcome !

    execute this
    Code:
    dpkg --audit
    apt-get check
    If these work, then at least you know that dpkg and apt are OK.
    What happens with:
    Code:
    aptitude search '~i!~M' > aptitude_sel.txt
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
