I hope I'm not being rude in posting here, but I have a problem with apt
on my RedHat 9 box. When I apt-get update or try to upgrade,my system
gets as far as ;
# apt-get update
E: Could not get lock /var/state/apt/lists/lock - open (11 Resource
temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the list directory

Are you sure you're root? I usually see this when I forget to sudo.
