Hi takan The error about "could not get lock" may mean that you have another package management tool running (perhaps a graphical tool?). You will see a similar error if you're not running the command as root.
BTW I don't think you really need to use sudo to install Koha. For example instead of doing: $ sudo koha-create ... you could get a root command prompt with $ su - and then simply run those privileged commands directly: # koha-create ...
