moin moin Mike,

interrupting an apt upgrade is usually OK, but it can leave packages in a
bad state. If one of those packages are important, then it can be a
challenge to recover.

In this particular case, you probably need to run "dpkg --configure -a"
and "apt-get -f install" to make sure your package database is in a
consistent state. After that do a new update and a new dist-upgrade just
to make sure everything is in order.

ciao,
