title: "reading files list for package 'inkscape': Input/output error" while trying to install packages
body: <p>It doesn't matter what I try to install using my package manager(sudo apt-get install whatever), I always get this error.</p>
  
  <pre><code>dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
   reading files list for package 'inkscape': Input/output error
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have researched and have tried to rebuild my dpkg status file, and I have also tried to revert to an older version, but it either hasn't worked or I am doing it wrong. </p>
  
  <p>Also, when I try to run the command "sudo apt-get update", I get this error.</p>
  
  <p>The problem started when I lost my internet connection while downloading monodevelop. Any help is greatly appreciated.</p>
