"could not lock" OR "unable to lock" comes every time
Asked by
Navin Talati
In the terminal, when I give any command for some changes like upgrade or so, after some process happenings, at the end it comes as under:
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
What does this indicate?
How to resolve it?
Please reply and help.
