Something went wrong while updating












0














I did a sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade in Ubuntu 18.04. There was about 60MB to install and it was mostly libmono stuff. In the middle of it installing it just started displaying the same text over and over about an error.



I hope this is and acceptable way of providing code, I'm new to the site and don't know how to properly format it.



https://github.com/Etheraex/Apt-error/blob/master/Error



I tried uninstalling mono and monodevelop (I didn't really use them; I just wanted to see how C# development would go on Linux), but it won't let me.



Also:



home@Mladen-PC:~/Desktop/123$ apt --fix-broken install

Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-

After dissabling and enabling ppa for mono sudo apt --fix-broken install
started displaying the same output that is in the github file.
