I am trying to install some upgrades and here is the message I am getting.
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?
I am trying to remove/var/lib/dpkg/lock,because I think that is the source of my problem, but it seems no matter what I try from terminal I cannot remove it. I can't just delete it, it won't let me, I must remove it but how do I do that?
Some help please!!!
Thank you,
R Howard
