Summary	0004227: dpkg: fatal error unrecoverable, aborting: `poppler-utils'
Description	dpkg: fatal error unrecoverable, aborting: a new line break is missing at the end of the `poppler-utils' file list file E: Sub-process / usr / bin / dpkg returned an error code (2) http://ibb.co/e2J64F
Steps To Reproduce	the first thing I did like every day was to update with the following command: apt update && apt upgrade -f -y && apt full-upgrade -f -y && apt autoremove -y -f in fact also not that the vmtools does not corractaente, the screen does not fit the correct resolution or should. Any solution?
