Update error - Failed to get lock on file - Cerc - 04-22-2023 Reading package lists... E: Failed to get lock on file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock. It is being held by process 1691 (apt-get) E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ How fix it? Re: Update error - Failed to get lock on file - stevef - 04-23-2023 That's a slightly unusual message. Can you tell us the sequence of events leading to this ? Have you tried re-running the install updates ? |
