#
# Fault : "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend"
# Fix   : Clear a stale lock and finish the interrupted transaction
# Source: https://jbtecwiz.com/support/lnx-apt-lock
#
# Run as     : Shell as root
# Expect     : 15 minutes
# Risk       : medium
# Reversible : NO -- read the undo note below
#
# WHEN THIS IS THE RIGHT FIX
#   Nothing holds the lock. Only do this once you have confirmed that with
#   lsof -- removing a live lock corrupts the package database.
#
# HOW TO UNDO IT
#   None. If dpkg --configure -a cannot complete, the specific package it
#   names usually has to be reinstalled or force-removed.
#
# Walks the fix one step at a time and asks before each. Steps with no
# command are yours to do -- it prints those and waits. DRYRUN=1 prints
# without executing; UNATTENDED=1 does not ask.
