Join Date Feb 2009 Beans 47 Re: sudo apt-get update (Unable To Lock The List Directory)? Sure looks like the error one gets when Synaptic is open and you try to use dpkg (apt-get) from command line. Shut down all GUI package management systems before running the apt-get update command. If that does not appear to be the issue, try a reboot. If that does not do anything, empty contents of /var/cache/apt/archives/partial as sudo, open a terminal while nothing else is running and issue command: sudo dpkg --configure -a When prompt returns, try again.

databases" errors occur when your package manager thinks that there's already another instance of your package manager running on your computer. Quite often https://forum.manjaro.org/t/how-to-solve-the-unable-to-lock-database-or-failed-to-synchronize-any-databases-errors/3939 this is actually not the case and the error is in fact just an error.

The quick fix was to remove and re-add the remote, then everything worked as expected. If you're not familiar with how to remove and re-add a remote in git, here's the steps: Copy the ssh git url of your existing remote.
