Package: apt

Version: 2.6.1

Severity: normal

Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

* What led up to the situation?

I have to simultaneously launch the upgrade of 2 software that have package dependencies.

They then both run some apt-get commands.

Obviously when I run them, one of them fail because of the DPkg::Lock file.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or

ineffective)?

Then I looked for an integrated solution for that in apt : DPkg::Lock::Timeout seemed perfect.

Then I use apt like this in my script:

apt-get -o DPkg::Lock::Timeout=360 update

apt-get -o DPkg::Lock::Timeout=360 -y upgrade

apt-get -o DPkg::Lock::Timeout=360 -y autoremove

apt-get -o DPkg::Lock::Timeout=360 -y install gcc python3-dev portaudio19-dev ffmpeg

Same in the other upgrade script.

I also tried to configure directly the DPkg::Lock::Timeout=360 a config file of the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d directory:

```

$ cat apt.conf.d/10dpkg-lock-timeout

DPkg::Lock::Timeout "360";

```

The result for example here:

```

+ sudo ./bin/pre-upgrade

+ tee /tmp/anc-server-pre-upgrade

+ export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive

+ apt-config dump

+ grep Timeout

DPkg::Lock::Timeout "360";

Binary::apt::DPkg::Lock::Timeout "-1";

+ apt-get -y update

Reading package lists...

E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock. It is held by process 14439 (apt-get)

E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/

```

So, it seems the option is correctly took into account, but just not working...

* What was the outcome of this action?

I still get the get lock error on one of the script. Here is an example

* What outcome did you expect instead?

One of the script should just wait for the other to finish.
