I tried to update using the sudo apt-get update
command in ubuntu 12.04 it gives me an error
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/
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?
can anyone help me how to solve this problem??
In addition to the answer given, you can probably have Synaptic package manager open. Close it in that case.
