Please open a Terminal from the menu Applications->Accessories->Terminal and type:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get --reinstall --purge install dash

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.

Hi Marco,

my problem isn't dash. I cann't to install any application, for an error in dpkg. when I try to install any package, it's terminated with this error: Fatal error: the list files of the "bridges-utils" package has a file name empty. I fixed it by renaming the bridge-utils.list file, and by reinstalling the bridge-utils package,

thanks

Best regards

Antonio
