Title: "apt failed to download packages, retrying in 10s..." results in " Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock" Status in Auto Package Testing: In Progress Bug description: logfile: https://objectstorage.prodstack5.canonical.com/swift/v1/AUTH_0f9aae918d5b4744bf7b827671c86842/autopkgtest-noble/noble/armhf/b/balsa/20240404_081820_ad372@/log.gz pertinent log messages: ``` 883s Get:204 http://ftpmaster.internal/ubuntu noble-proposed/universe armhf xvfb armhf 2:21.1.11-2ubuntu2 [738 kB] 935s autopkgtest: WARNING: apt failed to download packages, retrying in 10s... 954s E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend.

Or something along those lines.
