Very easy: 

   sudo mkdir -p /sw/var/lib/dpkg/updates

However, if this one is missing, there are probably other parts of the
dpkg package (where this one should have come from) missing as well, and
then you are out of luck, because reinstalling the dpkg package uses
dpkg itself, and... You get the picture.
