在 ubuntu 20.04 上安装 git 期间发生错误

Question

When I attempt to install git on Ubuntu 20.04,I get an error. I used the following command:

sudo apt-get install git

and it generated an error:

dpkg: warning: old mysql-server-8.0 package pre-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1
dpkg: trying script from the new package instead ...
debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable

Answer 1

As shown here , that means the config.dat file is used by another process, that you need to kill.

sudo fuser -v -k /var/cache/debconf/config.dat

That would kill directly said other process.

Then you can try again your install command.
