You could look in /var/log/dpkg.log for entries around the time the issue occured. You could run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" to make sure any un-configured or half-configured packages are configured. That might be enough. I could speculate what the issue is, but if you find something in dpkg.log, feel free to post a snippet and we can see.
