Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend解决办法

一、问题描述：

E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?

二、解决办法：
解决，使用ps 和 grep查找apt的pid,并使用kill杀死掉。

jack@ubuntu16:~$ ps aux|grep apt

jack@ubuntu16:~$ sudo kill 4273
jack@ubuntu16:~$ sudo kill 4274
jack@ubuntu16:~$ sudo kill 4275
jack@ubuntu16:~$ sudo kill 4276
jack@ubuntu16:~$ ps afx|grep apt

jack@ubuntu16:~$ sudo kill 3374

然后就可以继续执行你的安装步骤了，
若是还出现问题则执行下面这行指令，手动删除 /var/lib/dpkg/lock

jack@ubuntu16:~$ sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/lock
