报错

ubuntu命令行下面想使用apt安装软件，碰到如下错误:

sudo apt install -y chrpath
## 报错信息的后面是这样的
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  chrpath
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 534 not upgraded.
E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock directory /var/cache/apt/archives/

解决方案

这个报错的原因是，因为有另外一个进程在使用这个目录：/var/cache/apt/archives/，所以先确定是否还有其他人在使用软件管理程序或者在使用apt进行软件的安装，如果没有的话，可以直接删除/重命名：

sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock

# or
sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives/lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock_bak

# Then
sudo apt-get update

然后apt-get就恢复正常了，正常安装软件。
