dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
files list file for package 'apache2-bin' is missing final newline
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
and get this error??
Solution
Try to reinstall apache2 package:
apt-get remove apache2 --purge
apt-get install apache2
The other option is to move dpkg info files to some temp location:
sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/apache2* /some/location/path
and then
sudo apt-get install apache2 --reinstall
