Public bug reported:
In update-manager settings on the Update tab, 'Automatically check for
updates' is set to Never.
In terminal session, running 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' will
sometimes result with the following:
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily
unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another
process using it?
Other times, Update Manager will start when updates are available.
I run Ubuntu in VMs (infrequently right now) and open a terminal session
upon starting the VM to obtain updates before beginning any other work.
I set the option to Never because I don't need the slow Update Manager
to do what I am handling manually (in a much faster manner). And when I
select the option to Never check for updates, it really should NEVER
check!
