so I'm trying some python 2 scripts in my Ubuntu VM. I installed python 2.
One of the scripts need the module pathlib
.
Tried to install it but got a error message:
~/Desktop$ sudo apt-get install -y python-pathlib
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend. It is held by process 8632 (unattended-upgr)
N: Be aware that removing the lock file is not a solution and may break your system.
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?
I like to know that means and of course I like to know why this happened. I'm grateful for any help!
Cheers!
