“'dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'”?

I use Ubuntu for a week now, so I don't know what I'm doing.
Needed to enable exfat so I can mount my SD card.



sudo apt install exfat-fuse exfat-utils



Apparently that should've done it.



But then I got this:



dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem


After reading that this command is harmless and because I haven't found any advice, I ran it and it set up quite a lot of stuff (i386 and wine, which I tried to install the other day). The mounting Problem is still there.



second update: mounting problem solved (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNwqH9TiqIA) The dpkg thing seems still weird to me and I'd be happy if someone could explain...



UPDATE: I also tried this:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:relan/exfat
[sudo] password for teddy:
tag:launchpad.net:2008:redacted
More info: https://launchpad.net/~relan/+archive/ubuntu/exfat
Press [ENTER] to continue or Ctrl-c to cancel adding it.

  • I have a SanDisk ultra 64gb micro sd, put it in via Adapter, get "Error mounting [...] unknown filesystem type 'exfat'"
