Hi,

The error message is saying that the apt database is locked for
some reason.

That reason could be apt-get, aptitude, synaptic or update-manager
either installing something, or updating the package cache.

If this is still happening for you then it is more likely to be
a stale lock being held, does it work if you delete

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

Thanks,

James
