When I try to run sudo apt-get install
my terminal starts to install whatever I'm trying to install, then it goes into a weird state
If I exit the terminal and try to sudo apt-get install
again, I get this:
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?
When I restart my computer, and try to apt-get install
I get this:
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
When I run sudo dpkg --configure -a
and then run sudo apt-get install
again, I then go back to the original problem (see above).
sudo apt-get install packagename
