I was trying to set kubernetes up and got the following error

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?

Execute these three commands:

sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/lock
sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock

This error usually occurs when you use a command like apt-get update. After the command is executed, a lock file is created.

Try running the same command after few seconds. I don’t know why but the same command worked after some time for me

Try

sudo systemctl stop apt-daily.timer

After upgrading the system re-enable it, as the bug locking it could be fixed with the upgrade.

sudo systemctl start apt-daily.timer
